Arteck (etc.) jump start battery packs

[Cliftonite]

My troublesome Cl**ke (lead/acid?) jump start pack has now finally died and I am looking at replacing it with an Arteck (or similar) solid-state device.

Does anyone please have any practical experience of these intriguing devices, and advice to offer?

I seem to remember this subject possibly being aired not too long ago, but the PH (alleged) search function is not being helpful. If there is an existing (albeit stale?) thread, could I please have a link to it?

Many thanks!

They work. I've started big petrol and diesel engines with mine. Mine is pretty a pretty old "Antigravity" one from an era when these were very new.

My only concern with the really cheap ones is that is a shed load of somewhat hazardous lithium ion that has been implemented on the cheap. I wouldn't leave it on charge on a flammable surface for example.

I've had one for a couple of years and been delighted with it. It has started anything that needed it, including a 2.7 diesel Jag with a completely flat battery and my daughter's 2.0 diesel thingy, both with great ease.

Mine is no longer advertised, but generically I would suggest something like this:

Look for no less than about 18,000mAh capacity and 800A cranking output.

I’ve got the noco GB70 which I like. It’s started a 2.0L golf And a few vans and light trucks at my work. https://www.amazon.co.uk/NOCO-GB70-UltraSafe-Lithi...
