Hey Scotty I have been thinking of buying this Genius Jump Booster because I rarely use mine car during the winter.
So it might be a good way to easily start it the battery/engine up again.
Is it possible to fully charge your battery or is that not recommended to do so.
I noticed you also got different types of this device, is the 1000amp enough for a Peugeot 206? and can you recharge the booster right back at home again?
Thanks for in advance.
Scotty Kilmer is this charger better than the other charger you reviewed?
The Celica Supra🤤🤤😁
Hi Scotty, thank you so much for the great video as usual! How long do I have to leave the jump starter charging before I can drive?
He’s got a great video thank you Scotty I was also 101st. Airborne 1973 _1975
Contagious enthusiasm! That's what you'll aways with Scotty Kilmer's fast paced auto advice. More than once, I've had my laptop underneath my car watching how Scotty does his thing so I can do my thing. Thanks for sharing your expertise.

Starts big truck, strong flashlight, 12v., and can watch my laptop dvd's? Wow. I'm getting me one of these. Plus it fits in my tire well too. Thanks for posting this Scotty.
Great, funny, entertaining video as always Scotty. And my favorite part is your humor and how you keep little and huge car tips and repair videos under 5 minutes.
I actually picked up one of these a few years ago and kept it in my trunk in case I need it. It's good one to have in your car. You don't have to bother anyone for a jump start. When I was cleaning my car today, I had a person asking me if I had a jumper cables because the battery of his truck died. I told him I don't have one, but I do have the genius boost. Hooked it up to his battery terminal, and it started like it was nothing. Glad I could help him. Poor guy was stranded all day.
Thank you, God for making this man so darn entertaining!!
Educational video from Scott again, Thank you Sir. You forgot to mention where to purchase and the cost.
google it, I try out products to see which ones are good, I don't get paid for it as I'm not a salesman.
Amazon sells this for about $130
www.geniuschargers.com/
www.amazon.com/NOCO-G3500-UltraSafe-Battery-Charger/dp/B004LWVEKS/ref=sr_1_1?s=boating-water-sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1419950434&sr=1-1
Careful, I think only the 15amp version allows for jump starting.
This video should be more like a review than a commercial; that is why he did not suggest any retailers for that reason.
GREAT to know such a product exists-a little pricey....$125 on ebay...will wait till it goes down.......thanks scotty the king.....
The Corvette Stingray is one of my all time favorite cars. Brilliant Styling. I must admit I am impressed at how fast you talk and you don't seem to stop to take a breath :-)
Scotty is killing it. Keep up the great work. This stuff is gonna be a life saver.
Great, so how the hell am I supposed to get the cat off the roof then?
+Doug Reed You can always try and throw the charger at the cat. That should get it off the roof. You asked a stupid question and I gave a sensible answer.
+FRDKNG How do I then get the Jumper back down?
oliver24x
Maybe you could send the cat up to knock it down.
Oh wait...
Now I am confused.
***** LOL
I can honestly say I learned a lot from all his videos I've watched. This man is a genius!! Thanks Scotty!!
Thanks for this idea Scotty. I'm keeping a lead-acid jump system in my emergency box by my back hatch and it has gotten me out of trouble with an old battery until I got it changed out. It's also handy if a family member is stuck with a dead battery too since I can drive right over and hook it up fast. (Li-ion systems are lighter and denser for a given size though. I got the Lead Acid as a gift.)
To all the naysayers out there, this product works. I just got the GB40 (1000 amps) from Amazon and used it to start my Ford Focus 2002 Station Wagon that's been sitting for months. I'll admit this isn't one of the coldest days here in Wisconsin but it's pretty cold for the rest of the country. It's 1F outside right now and I just started the car. I had to engage the "boost" feature as I didn't get any signal at first. I didn't have to wait 30 secs, I just plugged it in, clicked the boost override button and dove in the car and it started from the first try. Funny thing is that I still couldn't drive the car. It's been snowing a lot lately and there's so much snow and ice between the wheel/brakes that my car is frozen put. I used the hand brake and not it won't release. I'll have to wait for a nice sunny day to get moving again. As for the reliability and performance of this product, it's the best car related purchase I've ever made.
P.S. my battery didn't have any visible + - signs but the battery cover did mention it. Usually, red is positive and black is negative. Hope this helps!
Thank you for working over the holidays for us subscribers Scotty, and Happy New Year!
Mike in England
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR AUTOMOTIVE VIDEOS TO HELP LEARN MORE ON USING THESE PRODUCTS ON MY NEWER AND OLDER VEHICLES. EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINING. THANKS MILAN
I bought the Noco GB40 and it works great. I have daughters. A woman doesn't like asking a man for a jumpstart in the middle of the night, and having one of these Noco units is the solution. Anyone can now jumpstart their care solo, no need to ask anyone for help. Of course, I guess you could always carry a spare fully charged 12v lead acid battery in your trunk with some jumper cables, but this just seems a whole lot better. Thanks!
I got similar one from eBay for around $80. It did start my Mazda 3 and on 2 separate occasions I was able to start 2 other cars in our underground garage, one of them was a large SUV that sounded like a diesel and that started too.
It also kept my laptop powered on for few hours on a long trip.
I'd say money well spent.
Scotty Kilmer for the win.
My nephew saved my butt with one of these things. On Christmas Day the -15 degree weather finally finished off my 5 year old battery. I even had the head bolt heater plugged in, wouldn't turn over. He got his little brick-sized booster out, hooked it up, and the car turned over like it was summer. I'm getting one of these!
Hey Scotty Kilmer you'd make a good infomercial presenter. Dust off your emmy, you need to get on TV asap.
Lol. He is i'm sure. Nothing bad about it but I would imagine he is basically doing that right now in this video. As long as he is sure this product is capable of what he is saying then great! But the problems occur when people say things that their audience would believe but product doesn't hold up to said thing. I'd like to think scotty is one of the good guys though.
mattp1482 but usually when something like this has bunch of flashy lights and eye catching options, there is a reason...
mattp1482 makes you wonder why cars don't come oem with a small back up module that you turn on for instances like this..
mattp1482 the lights are to tell you what the charge level is, they actually are very useful.
mattp1482 maybe people would rly on it too much but its a good thought
I boosted my Nissan with batteries for my radio control car back in the good old days. 7.2 volt nicad pack.
A few years later I got a Zantrex car booster, now that's power, but I didn't need it because i learned it was cheaper and easier to maintain your car battery
This guys awesome. Very old school.
just got a car and saw the device on Amazon. Thanks for the review
My shop has something similar to this that the boss bought from the Interstate battery guy. It's more compact that what Mr Kilmer has and works like 75% of time. The one we're using is only good when jumping a partially dead battery on V6-V8 cars, however it'll not jump a completely dead battery car with those size engines.
These are awesome devices. I use mine regularly. As well as the genius charger G7200.
This jump starter is the best one on the Market by far iv had mine for 3 Years now and never had a problem
Fantastic videos Scotty. I have just seen the video about the Noco Genius GB30 and went right out and bought one. I live in Toronto and its a warm 21 degrees below zero today and it is only going to get colder. I was going to buy a bulky booster but after seeing the GB30 in action I am glad I waited. As you know nothing kills a weak battery faster than cold and it is good to know I can keep the GB30 in my glove box ready for any one who might need a boost without the hassle of booster cables or the risk of damage to my alternator or the multitude of computers on board today. Thanks again and keep those videos coming, they are great. Ps I wish there were more honest mechanics like you.
Scotty is one of the GOATs in the car game
Scotty, what do you neighbors think of you when you come flying out of your trunk during your recording sessions? Do you catch them smiling, staring while you record, or what? :) By the way, I love your videos and goofyness. Awesome tool review. I think I'll pick one up (much better than buying a good set of cables that will cost me 60 bucks anyway).
I film when they are at work
Hi, I am in the U.K and have a slightly different version. Here they call it the Glove Box Starter Battery. And mine you plug into the Car Cigarette Lighter socket and wait 10 minutes. Saves all those hefty things that had to be puled on a trolley or Jump Leads in the Rain
Thanks for this great tutorial, Scotty! Only a few weeks ago I was in the situation that my battery was empty, it has only 0,34V left! And unfortunately I had just a electronic portable jump starter that usually doesn't work when the battery is on such low voltage. But I found a solution for everyone who got stuck in this situation!
Just use a new 9V block battery and connect it parallel to the battery together with your jump starter. Now your battery has "theoretically" 9V and the device will recognize it.
There is no danger using a 9V block battery , because all power from the jump starter and the alternator will flow directly into the empty car battery and will not try to charge the 9V block battery. When you start your car, the 9V block battery will be immediately drained, so you can only try it once, but it should work on the first try.
After that don't forget to disconnect the 9V block battery. You're welcome!
Thank you for your aewsome trick.
Guys this product is 2 thumbs up, I tested it, I was down to 8 volts meter, I play my radio, flashing light, all lights, then I try to restart didnt start, But then I used this product very very very good I am glad I buy this one..... the moment of truth this NOCO Genious is 2 thumbs up seriosly, I recommend this product to you all. thank you scotty for this one you finally advertised a good product lol
You are the real deal buddy!!!! You saved me cash, time and stress today! Now, my Camaro Super Sport is snuggly tucked away in my garage "fixed" and I did it myself with the help of your tutorials!
That red Toyota supra is in amazing condition
Classic Scotty Intro Scotty Kilmer should get a Star on HollyWood Walk of Fame⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nice red Celica Supra in your video. I have a 87 Toyota Supra and that thing is amazing and very reliable.
Just bought one. Thanks Scotty.
happy they made this its way more safe to use in the motor industry
Nice product. I have found that sometimes you can get going again by cleaning the terminals well. If your alternator is working, if you get started you can get to a place to get a battery. Thanks Scotty for the info.
I finally realized who Scotty reminds me of: Cliff Stoll, a mathematician who makes glass klein bottles and is very excited about that fact.
Hi Scotty, I did some extensive research on P420 code and it turns out that it is pretty much never due to the catalytic converter. So, even if replacing the cat or switching fuels or using paint thinner makes the code go away, in pretty much every single case, it's STILL not because of the cat. Anything you do that improves the score on the O2 sensor can make it go away temporarily, so making it go away doesn't necessarily mean you found the problem.
The majority of 420 cases are simply because of a leak in the exhaust. Any nick or opening or loose connection (especially around the flex pipes) will cause the pressure to drop a little, causing the O2 score to drop. So, inspecting every inch of the exhaust system is the first step. Next to check is your spark plugs and leads, which, just like your rusty old exhaust pipe are not designed to last forever. But your catalytic converter is designed to last the life of your car. After reading all the stories of people chasing 420 issues, I bet that 99% of the cats that get replaced have nothing wrong with them and so someone could probably make a good business buying "clogged" ones and testing them them before reselling them as being in good condition.
yes, all true, but I'm showing people how to get their car to pass the emissions test, and cleaner will often do that. Cat systems are a complex feedback system, and it can often cost thousands to get them to run efficiently enough to turn that light off.
please check for vacuum leaks- that will throw the code
Well they do work but the power ratings they list (especially NoCo) are about 3-5x higher then their actual capabilities, people have tested this and found quite a few things lacking.
Also these use lithium batteries, if you let the batteries sit fully charged in very hot environments (i.e. car baking in the sun) for long periods the batteries will start failing within months.
Those devises are brilliant my dad has one I still have the BIG bumper packs
devices*
I work at a car lot in my town. We only have about 30 cars, but, on any given day, at least 5-6 are dead. From them sitting, even though we start them every morning. These little jumpers will start 10 cars easy on a single charge. But you need to take it off the battery as soon as the car starts or they will overheat really quick and can melt the leads.
That Supra is awesome in the background. That's a cool designed car.
I know what I want for my birthday! Thanks for showing us this product.
I love this guy's enthusiasm :D
Hey Scotty hello to you from denver Colorado great channel keep up the good work
that thing can literally be a life saver. thanx scotty!
Scotty you just saved me a bunch of money!
I like how you put everything in laymens terms. Makes it easy to understand and the general randomness is always a good laugh, thanks.
u are a funny guy to watch specially when you helping out people.,thanks for the help now I know how to fix that drain battery that I'm having with my car
I wish this guy was my neighbor lol with all these issues in life great to have someone like this around...
Dang those things are getting crazy compact. Gonna have to pick one up since I'm moving to the middle of nowhere. Great video!
These little batteries are awesome. They have already saved me once, and they also make excellent mobile charging stations for my smartphone/tablet.
Great product for people who drive or travel alot in unforgiving weather conditions(Snow and dry desert.
I was watching this video and then took my car for a drive, it stranded me with a dead battery lol :D what a coincidence. Nice video Scotty, I always wanna watch your Live Show but I keep missing it because of the time zones here. Keep up the good work :)
My friends and I spent the night in the woods with our dirt bikes, and my friend left his power switch on and had no kick starter -_- My other friend and I didn't have batteries just kick starters so this was such a awesome device to get his bike on and riding again sense there were no kills just mud, thanks
Doug Reed yeah we tried that but it was really hard to do it sense his bike is not good at pop starting at slow speeds he needs a hill so we used that lol
Hey Mr.Scotty...I love that Boost.
Love your channel too.
I found such batteries from a Chinese vendor (from which I bought a 14k mAh battery for my iPhone because I work a tonne on it) and besides the fact that it was larger than my laptop's (in mAh but not in size, 90k mAh) not only I could have used normal USB or even power my laptop but it also had car jumping cables. It's definitely a must buy just in case of anything.
Dang! Now that is one impressive invention. No more long extension cords and no more waiting for hours till it charges.
I love these things they come in handy 💖
that's the best product I've ever seen in my life.
Thanks Scotty for the info on that small battery charger, that will come in real handy for me big time. I never it existed.
I had something years ago on my Chevelle. I ran a dual battery system off an isolator. Then if the main battery ever went dead, I could jump start off the secondary battery. Plus I ran the stereo, amp and fog lights off the secondary battery, reducing the strain off the primary.
Wow Scotty I got to get me one of these. I still got my Schumacher Mity Mite in the trunk. Now I have had that for years.
Brilliant device & a great video.
Awesome little device!! Thanks Scotty!!!
Thanks this was the best little tool I have bought. My 2009 Pathfinder died (battery) and this little, tiny thing started it up. :)
That thing is cool Scotty. I might consider buying one.
I bought this on sale at Canadian Tire. Awesome little thing
Beautiful Starion in the driveway.
I've been watch you videos over a year, how am I just subscribing????
Truck wouldn't start (again).
Googled instructions for the CORRECT way to hook up jumper cables.
Came across this video.
Jumped in my car.
Bought this thing at the local auto parts store. Literally in that order.
Just waiting for it to charge now so I can get my truck going!
go scotty. i am 100% for your informative videos
Matco had one of these that was even smaller in the catalog a while ago I wasn't sure if it'd work but judging by this video it might be a good investment
Cool Video Scotty!
AWESOME PRODUCT
That is a great product Scotty
I recommend watch videos of car booster packs. Scotty's particular model had trouble starting a 4 cylinder diesel. A cheaper model started a diesel every time. It also worked when frozen. Genius didn't work.
That's a super capacitor. Its cool to see a company making it easy access. I watch a youtuber who has these types of capacitors as his battery! Saved all the weight of the lead with a two pound capacitor bank.
The little doggie in the background was so cute !!
Rugged geek also makes a quality jumper (have jumped multiple vehicles no prob)....what sets them apart is they also have adapters to charge devices and you can order a model with an air compressor. One of the best purchases I have made. Easily worth the $150 price on Amazon.
Just had a dead battery last night. This is now on my list.
Oh my god you make my day thats awesome is wonderful always whit good things thank you
awesome video! thanks Scotty

400A wouldn't crank over my Jeep 5.9; so, I got one with 1000A. Actually had to use it the other day and VROOM! Started with no problem at all.
1000A Works great for my 5.9 Jeep, and my Suburban; both of which, would not start with only 400A. Ask me how I know. HA HA. I see you got some negative comments down below. Haters gonna hate. But, my bet is they probably have larger engines or higher compression engines that require more than 400A. My Suburban needs a new battery right now; and, I'm looking for one that's more for recreational use; because, I generally don't drive the big thing; unless, I'm on vacation or something. I was thinking about your "Lithium IRON" battery, that'll fit a Suburban; but, I can't find it. I need battery size 78, advertised for 800A cranking amps - the very reason the little 400A model won't crank a Suburban. Anyways, as much as batteries cost; and, like you said, "They're not giving them away"; and, as many times as I've replaced batteries only to get one or two trips out of it; yeah, I'm seriously thinking about a Lithium IRON battery for my Suburban. Any ideas on that? Any coupons? HA HA
This stuff is good , Idk how much it will be here in middle east ,thanks for the video you rock :D
i knew it was an old supra! still looks good.probably mid 80s.
thanks for the product info. i'll look into getting one.
you are amazing scotty!! have you ever consider doing like a Car show on the radio?? kinda like the dudes over on NPR do that Car Talk, you'd fit in perfectly you have a good sense of humor and those guys just ludicrous but very helpful.
this guy deserves a sub
Lol that crazy cat.🤣
Took mine back.
Bought this on your rec.
Will start cars 4.3 Astro and IH 154 gas tractor.
I couldn't get 3 starts with out charge down to 50%.
Hype not lived up to.
Others on market that are better and don't have to lie.
1000 amp 8 g cables?
Wow..that thing is good for a lot of reasons..I want one!!
Yo you're awesome! ! You make car videos fun to watch !
car need to start that fast of this battery (or supercap bank) can hold some time of cranking. I mean, pretty cold engine, or car with some issues already preventing to start first try. Happy new year Scotty !!!
Love this guy, very informative in a funny way
Scotty for President
It's a life saver. Imagine you stranded in the middle of nowhere where there is no cell phone signal, and you have no satellite phone. It's 110F in the Death Valley. Now, all you need is to make sure you jump starter has battery because if both batteries are dead, you are doomed.
Very cool new toy Scotty. Thanks for the review.
