0:40 Now that jack is in a way too perilous position for stability, one bump and it's over. Really ought to carry a small jack stand for actual roadside use of these.

What is the purpose of the disturbing plink plonk noise in the back?

[@vicpetrishak1077]

Turn sound volume on to hear the jack operate , that will tell a lot . 10/22

Has anyone found a video that recorded the sound and speed of the electric scissors jack actually performing a lift without muting the sound and speeding up the video?

[@sadfur8728]

I've tried it on mine, and while it's not exactly smooth sounding, it seemed acceptable in terms of noise and speed. Good for an emergency purpose, but a regular hydraulic floor jack or an air jack would be my preference for routine use. Air jack comes in as first preference for me after trying that out. Very quick and quiet.

[@ammar3094]

Any jack can fail anyways so these are great to use with a jack stand

[@lukequigley121]

Have another brand BUT works sweet.. Older dude that looks for easier ways and this is it..W/a batt impact gun and sockets make tire change , rotation a breeze

[@keithterry2169]

A cordless drill and sockets do work very well and are much speedier than the manual lever but I'm not carrying them around with me in the car all the time. At 74 I'm still quite capable of using hand tools.

[@kafklatsch3198]

​@keithterry2169 it is admirable at 70+ to use hand tools, however.. when stuck on the side of the road, you want to get the flat fixed as quickly as possible and anything to make it quicker is more prudent. I use a scissor jack, jackstand, a battery impact gun, chock and sockets.. I can change a flat in minutes .. in my experience, in about 1/4 the time...i use the impact to raise and lower the jack/car in seconds (some of these units take minutes!!!)... my impact gun is plugged in my trunk full time (stops charging when full), and It's way faster than these products. If I need to use the impact in the garage, simple, I get it out.

[@marcopolanco6398]

1:18 the fellow has his legs under the car? At least put a bottle jack under the car before risking your limbs. The Nthpower is a "heavy jack in a lightweight" case. Wouldn't that make it a heavy case when it's inside? I think you meant heavy-duty.

[@sadfur8728]

most likely he's not actually doing anything other than posing for the video, as mentioned, there isn't anyone that's actually changed a tire that would assume such a position to do anything except maybe relax and have a beer while waiting for AAA. 😜

[@wackadakka3134]

the cheapest and most efficient one of all of them is at 4:36

[@tooltime9260]

The scissor jacks have bad bearings that wear out too soon. Be prepared to buy another unit soon. These really are for emergency use ONLY. The others come from the same factory with mildly different cosmetic designs for each seller. As to changing tires, ASAP, put the SPARE tire UNDER the rocker panel in case the car drops for any reason. Then, once the bad tire is off the hub, QUICKLY swap out the good from the bad and put the BAD tire BACK UNDER THAT SAME ROCKER PANEL, THEN put the good wheel on. You NEVER want a lifted car up in the air without some sort of drop protection under it FIRST. A dropped car is a nightmare just waiting to happen otherwise.

[@kafklatsch3198]

All of the jacks with a minimum height of 6" (150mm) are useless for most cars. What car is more than 6 inches off the ground on the flat corner of the car???... There should be a CAR jack video exclusively.

[@magsteel9891]

I'm pretty sure those two chicks won't be changing any tires

[@sadfur8728]

Just bat them eyelashes and help will come running 😂

[@Jolly56Roger]

What happens when the motor fails ( how do you lower it)😕😕

[@sadfur8728]

The scissors jack apparently comes with a little plastic wrench handle to manually crank and bring it back down if the motor burns out after lifting it. Just be prepared to be there for a while as it takes a long time.

[@Bilytkid]

Did you watch the video? There is a wrench to turn the valve. Same as a hydraulic floor jack

[@mogeking56]

I keep a single brick 🧱 in my car 🚘 just in case the ground is unstable to mount your device on

[@vibowme3761]

Never use a brick or masonry block, as they are brittle and can fail without warning. Would recommend a treated wood block or board.

[@paididoy]

I use a plate of steel

[@vector150]

I dont need an electric jack. I use my cordless impact to raise them up and down. so i guess I made my own lol

[@brynjolfureinarsson6038]

Me too 😊

[@sobeit1927]

Why ?

[@trungson6604]

Many new cars no longer comes with spare tire, nor manual jack nor wrench. So, instead of having to buy manual jack, wrench, tire inflator, flash light, etc...I can just buy one E-help kit instead. The E-help kits comes completed with the jack, tire inflator, flash light, impact wrench, gloves, and other emergency equipments. Very convenient. You don't want want to sit on the side of traffic to jack up your tire, because this is very dangerous. With an electric jack, you can safely hide inside your car or on the curb, until the car is jacked-up, then use the impact wrench to very rapidly remove the tire to fix it with a tire fixing kit and re-inflate it before you remount the tire. SAFETY is the main thing. In very cold and hot weathers, you don't want to sit outside for a long time to jack up your car and use regular wrench, so you let these tools help you while you sit inside the comfort of your car.

[@sadfur8728]

​@@trungson6604 If the car doesn't come with a spare tire, what would be the purpose of removing the wheel?

[@sadfur8728]

​​@@trungson6604 This kit may be handy if your car does have a spare tire that can be swapped for the flat, but it's a bit heavy compared to the factory supplied lug wrench and jack. Not sure if it'd be worth stowing away in the trunk if the manual items work sufficiently for someone capable of using them.

[@trungson6604]

@@sadfur8728 Removing the wheel to fix the hole that causes the leak. Sometimes, it is possible to jack up the car and rotate the wheel to find the nail, remove it, and jam the sticky plug into the hole, but often, it would be far easier to remove the wheel so that you can use your whole body weight to jam the plug into the hole. It appears that you have never repair a punctured tire before?

[@sadfur8728]

@@trungson6604 I've never considered needing to remove the tire to plug it. I thought it clever to just move the car to the position where the nail or screw is easily accessible and work with it on the car. Can't imagine it being necessary to remove the whole wheel and deal with the hazards of the car up in the air with only this jack while you plug it, but if that's what you find necessary for the strength you have for plugging, by all means.

[@brads552]

We have AAA, you will grow old waiting for service. Tried to change a flat, could not remove the lug nuts. We finally got the lug nuts off and had a hell of a time with the jack. It use to be so easy to change a tire. What happened? Any one of these devices would satisfy me as long as I don’t have to go through that again. I’ve added a 20” breaker bar with a socket that will fit the lug nuts.

AAA can take 30-60 minutes to get to you.

[@crackerjacks6789]

I think it’s about convenience. I appreciate the technology. Some of us have difficulty changing a tire on the road at night especially females, older people and people who have back problems.. I love the last one as it has a drill and air pump and a cord to plug into the car to charge.. I almost guarantee that the inventors of these jacks were stuck somewhere on a dark road trying to change a tire with screaming children wanting to go home. Or they couldn’t afford a tow oh I say keep on improving on these inventions.. We need them.. 😅

[@rytramprophet843]

I tried googling E-HEELP and STANDTALL and could find absolutely nothing besides viseos for the ECJ's. It makes you wonder about the product quality if you cant even find any information about the company who sells them. Not even a customer service link.

[@sw6188]

By the time this video was made, the company that manufactures these brands (4, 2 and 1 are essentially the same unit) had probably stopped making them and gone on to other names. There's no brand longevity these days like there used to be 50 years ago.

[@altingjoka5820]

it's the same crap made all in china... bound to fail.

[@sw6188]

Number 4, number 2 and number 1 are all basically the same unit - just slight differences in the case, colour and name. Likely all made in the same factory and just given different badges depending on which wholesaler is getting them.

[@johnhix484]

Might work ok if you are driving a tin can but if you have a real car ie full size use a real mechanical Jack,a stable base and safety stand.

[@Deontjie]

Imagine you are already in trouble and this piece of Chinese shite fails....

[@ammar3094]

All jacks are made for is to lift long enough to put it on a jack stand and any of them including expensive floor jacks can fail so these do fine
