[@Georgia4Low]

What’s your experience with Lithium Jump Starters?

[@eastcoastman8082]

Thank you so much for that video I just bought one of those today I work at the high school janitorial maintenance teachers are always calling me to jump start their cars I usually do it with my truck with cables I figured if I get one of these it would be more efficient and quicker your video has taught me a lot about this unit again thank you so much

[@Georgia4Low]

Thank you for watching

[@IvyCreek-76]

Purchased the 1600a from HD today after watching your review,Thanks for the great video,you both done awesome covering everything about this awesome little device.

[@Georgia4Low]

Thanks for watching! I used mine again this weekend to jump off the Jeep.

[@comradg]

Thanks for putting this together. Going down the street to buy on tomorrow. 2003 tahoe z71 battery is dead...

[@Georgia4Low]

Thanks for watching and you are welcome, please share video with your friends

Bought one of these a few days ago after my Landcruiser (V8) battery went below the ability to start. Had the radio and lights on after we parked, turned off the engine at a Chick-fil-a.. we ate durning that time the radio shut off and I noticed accidentally left the lights on… we killed the battery while we ate. I noticed a Home Depot across the street, I walked over, and bought this Vector 1200, it was able to give the battery enough juice right out of the box to start the engine…I was surprised… it was perfect for my situation…

[@Georgia4Low]

That’s awesome to hear and glad it worked out great! Thanks for watching

[@MatthewWilson-i5v]

They work good. That victor jumper box

[@Georgia4Low]

Yes, they do work great. I’ve used mine several several times.

[@arthursmith643]

I also have a a solar charger in each vehicle. About the same size as the jump starter. Great for running your cell phone and wireless speaker. Plug them both in leave the charger in the sun. Music all day or charge cell phones. Another cool little toy.

[@Georgia4Low]

Agreed! We have a solar battery generator ( I believe that’s what the cool kids call them) currently only charging via AC outlet but looking to getting a portable solar panel for sure. Thanks for watching

[@arthursmith643]

@@Georgia4Low I use my little solar charger with my Garmin GPS when traveling. Toss the cell on the dash in the sun. 😁

[@kratosofwar6165]

I've been iffy about these jump starters but good to know they work

[@Georgia4Low]

I had been iffy as well, long term use is still to be determined. Thanks for watching

[@arthursmith643]

You don’t need anything like AAA or a salvage/junk yard has. I figure if it bails me out once and I my wife and family aren’t stranded it was worth it. Grab one on sale for somewhere under $100.00 and you’ll do fine.

[@arthursmith643]

NOCO is a good brand. NOCO GB40 or GB70 will be fine. Hulkman 8.5 are also a good bet.

[@TheBreakingNewsHN]

Thank you for the video, I had a issue with a Hybrid car this morning, I have to purchase one of this, I see Walmart has one Stanley FatMax 1800A Lithium Jump Starter with 30W USB-C-PD In/Out and 15W USB-A Out, I hope this work for me. THANKS

[@Georgia4Low]

Thanks for watching

[@marklennox2151]

My van starter is clicking away...walked half mile to HD and picked up the 1600a...I'm charging it from my Jackery...hope it works...thanks for the instructions.

[@Georgia4Low]

if you have a dead battery it will work for sure, I've used mine many times since this video both on my truck, my Jeep Wrangler, and lawn mower.

[@marklennox2151]

@@Georgia4Low I appreciate the positivity...I'm stuck at Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut and losing my shirt while this thing charges...

[@Georgia4Low]

gotta hate that but I hope it works well for you. make sure you don't have battery cable connection issues as well, bad cable connections will limit the jump pack from helping you getting the van started. good luck!!

[@marklennox2151]

​@Georgia4Low ...and after it charged fully in 4 hours I gave it a try...my starter wasn't even clicking when I tried before the jump attempt so I thought I was doomed..the initial try had the starter clicking at least so I took it off for 5 minutes knowing it wouldn't start...tried again and YES!!!...I was doing the happy dance...wow...you were right!!!! Now I can get away from my poker disaster!

[@Georgia4Low]

great news! glad to hear! I have noticed at times it may take a few adjustments with the clamps to get them positioned well enough to "bite" into the battery terminals to make good contact.

[@robertknight4672]

I bought one of these and I like the fact that jumper cables are somewhat longer than they are on similar units. I have not had the opportunity to jumpstart a car with it yet.

[@Georgia4Low]

awesome, keep it charged up and it's ready when you need it.

[@robertknight4672]

@@Georgia4Low my alternator quit so I finally had a chance to try it out. I'm impressed.

[@Georgia4Low]

Glad it worked out and sorry the alternator took a crap.

[@arthursmith643]

Great video Just bought the same one from Homedepot. Great deal on sale. From $89.00 to $59.00 plus $25.00 more off for opening a no annual fee credit card. One guy said you have to plug it into the wall electrical outlet first before plugging into the charger so it charges.

[@Georgia4Low]

Great deal for sure! Yes I believe the instructions say plug in power supply first then connect to the jump pack for charging. Thanks for watching

[@wskripka1]

Have you tried the bigger Vector 1600 amp charger ?

[@Georgia4Low]

no I have not but this 1200 amp has saved the day many times from jump starting my mower and Jeep.

[@OrangeCounty92]

How do you store it? Mine broke from heat damage after a year. It got bloated over time.

[@Georgia4Low]

wow! that's crazy, I keep one in my truck under the back seat, it's stored in a crown royal bag lol, never any issues. I try and charge it every few months. I keep another one in the house I use for the mower sometimes etc.

[@tysons8759]

I got one yesterday. It’s legit.

[@Georgia4Low]

It’s works really great! Thanks for watching

[@researchandbuild1751]

I just want to comment and say, great video quality! Nice and clear and good framerate. About the jumpstarter, I think it's kind of ugly/lame how they have that L shape on this one, with that big chunk hanging out sideways. Makes it a bit less packable, maybe that comes off - but then its even more a pain to store I think because you have to be sure not to lose the pieces.

[@Georgia4Low]

Thanks for watching. Yes I wish they included a carry case for all the parts. I keep the battery pack and all the accessories in a Crown Royal whiskey bag lol. Yes the jump start cables unplug from the unit when not in use.

[@Steven-j9x]

When I plug my unit, in what's the included chord? It doesn't do anything if I plug c chord into it, then it charges.. Has this happened to anybody else

[@Georgia4Low]

Not sure what you are trying to say. Are you having charging issues?

[@hoboogz1475]

I previously just had a jump and carry 660 jump starter and I needed something alil more smaller and practical so I found someone selling 2 vector 1200 for $50 each brand new...so I jumped on it and me and my friend bought both of them...I love the power they pack...i literally took it from the box and used it and it jumped my battery immediately without charging it...but it will definitely be charged completely soit wil always be ready

[@Georgia4Low]

Thanks awesome to hear, thanks for sharing

[@MAGR1994]

Just bought the 1600 for $90 at Home Depot. I have a 4cyl 2.7l Tacoma so I should be good.

[@Georgia4Low]

Yes indeed it will work fine. I've used mine many times now on my Jeep and lawn mower.

[@lobomichoacano915]

I bought one of these but when it is charging it does not indicate any LED, is it normal or is it defective?

[@Georgia4Low]

I had mine do this as well, I pressed the power button to turn it on and then the charging LED’s came on.

[@VDecuir]

Did you fix this problem already? If not, I found that you have to plug the adapter into the wall BEFORE plugging the cable into the device in order for the LED lights will properly turn on.

[@Georgia4Low]

Yes that’s correct as well. Thank you

[@rsc557]

Thank you both for your information.

[@Georgia4Low]

You’re Welcome

[@timlabell]

To charge it ,the vector 1200 ,do you just plug it into the wall socket?good video. If this all works out, I'm purchasing one today.

[@Georgia4Low]

yes to charge it just use the provided charging cables and adapter to either charge from a 110/120 outlet (wall socket) or USB. Thanks for watching

[@Chevro91]

No chance of fires with these units ? Wether leaving in a car or charging in the home .. Just making sure this brand is not notorious for the internal battery to go wonky

[@Georgia4Low]

It’s Li-on which is more stable than the Li-cobalt. I’ve seen or heard of any fire issues.

[@javorisalexander5]

Wat if I don’t have the original charger

[@Georgia4Low]

@javorisalexander5 seems like a pretty generic usb cable or commonly used cable

[@philgraciegracie6297]

I don't think you should have cut the camera out before you hooked it up to restart it again you should left your camera running so that we could see the whole video where there wasn't any Missing time frame.. You could have easily put another battery in there.

[@Georgia4Low]

lol, to lazy to be swapping batteries bro! It worked just as the video showed! Thanks for watching

Hook it up straight to the battery, both positive and negative leads.
