Jump Box Flash Light!?

[HFV_Junkyardin]

So I happened to walk past this in Walmart and it got me. It’s an emergency flash light with a battery bank, which you can charge your phone with, and supposedly jump start a car. It claims it jump up to a 5.0l V8. We shall see.

@hfv I upgraded to one of these after the older style jump box I had wouldn’t keep a charge anymore. I bought a larger one, but it works well the couple times I had to use it.

I keep it in the car for emergencies but have used it to move something that sat too long once or twice.

@hfv that's not a lot of battery for doing a jump. Does it say how many amps it can give?

[HFV_Junkyardin]

@essextee it claims 200 constant 600 peak

[HFV_Junkyardin]

@jminer awesome. I’m going to test this out with my motorcycle that’s been sitting for a month, with a battery that needs to be replaced. And see if it’ll do that. My plan is to keep this in my wife’s car.

@hfv fun fact, that blue plug is an RC car battery plug.

[HFV_Junkyardin]

@alfalfa makes sense. That battery is probably one you’d find in an RC car.
