Portable jump starters have become essential tools to keep in your trunk. Long gone are the days of flagging down a stranger and pulling out a pair of jumper cables to connect when you find yourself with a dead battery. Nowadays, you can give yourself a jump with these handy little electrified boxes.
This AVAPOW unit is a great one, and it’s currently available for under 50 bucks. It can jump start cars, SUVs, and even boats with up to 7.0-liter gas or 5.5-liter diesel engines. It also promises to work in fairly extreme temperatures, claiming to be able to jump vehicles in -4°F all the way up to 140°F. It features reverse polarity protection, over-current protection, high-temperature protection, over-load protection and more. If you need to charge a USB device or two, don’t worry, it has built-in USB 3.0 and USB-C outputs. A few helpful Amazon reviewers helped us to answer the question of how long the cables themselves are, saying that they measure at about 12-inches long each. Last but not least, like some jump starters, it also features a built-in emergency flashlight with an SOS mode and this one also comes with a bonus USB charging cable.
