I have the GB70 and a Ford 450 with a V10 6.8 l. My battery was so low the GB70 couldn't verify polarity, but they have a function to override the safety (and warnings to be sure the polarity is correct!) It started the engine with no problems!! I no longer carry jumper cables. I can re-charge from my solar if it need to. Great product. I re-charge it before each trip. Good video.

[@jerryg50]

Running a car battery to below 60% level, and leaving it like this for more than a number of hours can cause irreversible damage to the electrodes. APG type batteries are more sensitive to be damaged. I have a GB150. I use it for my truck. Where I live we have temperatures going down to the -45 range during the winter months. I keep it in a case under the back seats. I also have a GB70 that I use for my car. I charge these up about every 3 months when not in use. After each use I charge it up. If you run down the battery in your vehicle, it can take about 30 to 60 minutes of driving for the alternator to top up the battery; depending on the size of battery and the charge rate of the alternator.

[@MrStropparo]

Thanks for the updated info on leaving it plugged in the truck. Very useful information.

[@stonedfaceballer69]

The great thing about those jumpers is you don't have to wait 5 minutes like you do with a normal car maybe 30 seconds and it should jump just fine I have the TV 150 matter of fact I have two of them I use one for personal use and I have another one up at my shop and I love them both. I even had the gb70 and the gb40 and the GB 700. Now I want the GB5000

[@sungkim6923]

I was wonder about GB 150, but now I know that GB 150 is working and this will be my list to get. Thanks for your video and I enjoyed it.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

I am really glad you found the video useful thank you for watching. Jason

[@Taromovies]

Nice and useful piece of gear Jason, thanks for sharing and explaining, take care, Taro

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks Taro this can be a very useful peace of gear, one I wish I would have had a few years ago. Jason

[@StrangeAngel66]

Thanks for the charging info I’m just going to keep mine plugged in my truck and always not have to worry about having a charge for a boost

[@ACountryWayOfLife]

Might be picking one of these up to stick in my trunk. Thanks for showing us.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Your welcome, this is one of the expenses that you don't truly appreciate until the day you need it. Also look at the different models like I said this one is overkill for my rig, depending on your vehicle you might be able to get way with one of their smaller models. Jason

[@ACountryWayOfLife]

I was just checking out their website, I'm thinking the 40 would do fine for my car. I like that you can charge a phone off of it in a pinch.

[@truckindawg1]

Hey cool, I'm from Redmond and I also did a video on this awesome jumper! Only I used mine to jump my freightliner cascadia with a DD15 , 15 liter engine. I love it and have used it 3 times now!

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Its a great piece of gear I jumped a friends car with it this last weekend. Jason

[@rimrockoutdoors9524]

Very cool! Great piece of gear. Thanks for sharing.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks Bill, this definitely a piece of gear that I happy to have. Jason

[@murphtahoe1]

Damn you Jason...I’m off to the computer to spend more money! LMAO! That looks like and awesome unit. I’m pretty impressed that it’s been sitting in your truck for that length of time and started your truck! Thanks for sharing this great review and I’m getting this for a couple of vehicles.

[@MrMharley]

Love the channel 👍🏻🇺🇸 thanks for the review

[@jackwalsh1468]

Another very informative video. Cheers, Mate.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks, Jack I am glad you like it. Jason

[@chrishouston5778]

Jack Walsh how long does it take the charger your noco 150 gb

[@arthur4818]

Nice Drone footage, the jump box is great to have, perfect timing for this video I'm looking for a new one. Thumbs up!!!

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Spending money on items like this can be difficult, but you are sure happy you did when need it. I am glad you found the video useful. Jason

[@CentralOregonSurvival]

Very nice, seems like they just keep getting smaller and smaller... Freaking awesome!! You where on the back side of the reservoir? Cool Todd

[@PrimalOutdoors]

I am really happy with this unit, its going to be very good addition to my vehicle, I was at Roberts Bay, nobody there it was pretty nice. Jason

[@CentralOregonSurvival]

I need one for my BOV...

[@riverrat1149]

Yesterday I took Melinda up Hurricane ridge for her Birthday.It was windy and cold up there so we ate lunch in the truck and I forgot to turn the lights off,they were on for a half hour.The truck started but one of them would of been a nice comfort. I have an 08 f150 that has both switched and constant aux plugs{cig lighters} If youuse a switched it will only charge when the key is on or running.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Situations like this happen all the time, I had a old Toyota that wouldn't ding at me when I had the lights on, and left them on once when I was in the Cascades and went hiking, came back soaking wet to a truck with a dead battery, had to wait several hours for my buddy to find me a jump start me, I would have done anything to have one these. Good point on the Aux cig lighter. Jason

[@riverrat1149]

I just learned how to disable the dinger in our Fords but I am afraid to do it.LOLI am actually going to modify the truck to operate like my Subaru wagon where the head lights turn off and on with the key.I love the keyed lights on my Subaru's.

[@thomasbrustad5596]

Always hook up the pos first and neg last. Electricity flows neg to pos. When the neg is hooked up first, that pos lead is live. When it just touches metal it will arc.

[@b1jmaz79]

unit is OFF when plugging it... no way it can spark unless he turns it on override mode before plugging

[@dannythomas7902]

This is bulshit the whole car pos is always switched old lies

[@jameskoralewski1006]

You need to purchase the NOCO Accessory "NOCO XGC4" or be prepared to tie up your truck accessory 12 v. outlet for 3 hours. This accessory will allow you to charge up the GB-150 battery from 120-volt house current electricity.

[@joedaloisio9234]

I contacted Noco and asked them the same question you had - Is it ok to leave the unit on charge 24/7 or is it better to charge the battery intermittently? They wrote back and told me there is absolutely no problem leaving the unit on charge all the time. They did stress however the importance of fully draining the unit occasionally and then re-charging it completely. They stated that doing so would increase the life of the battery. Now I just have to figure out how to somehow to discharge the unit fully! J.D

[@hp11208]

Lucky you, had to buy mines lol

[@BBBYpsi]

Just a word of advice always connect the positive first do not connect negative First

[@COGirl444]

This is a perfect solution for overlanding, never know when you are out & run into an issue with a dead battery, with no help in sight. Particularly for me where I may be out by myself. Thanks Jason! BTW - did NOCO give you a discount for your Patrons :)

[@Juanelo1946]

Jason, I need to look into the GB series of charger-boosters! I see other brands (small units) advertised lately on infomercials in the wee hours of the morning! They make similar claims. I am looking for something that could keep my iPhone camera running in bitter cold, battery-sapping conditions when I'm out ice fishing. Something like this might be the answer. What do you think? Thanks so much for the super review! Very well done! I love the magnified look at the product's controls!

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks they have some smaller units, specifically for charging usb devices that should work for that, I have one not from NOCO, that I bought a while ago and use it to extend the battery life of my action camera and to charge my phone. If NOCO's other products work as good as this did, I don't think you can go wrong. Thanks for watching and I am glad you found it useful. Jason

[@stephenmcdowell9210]

Ive got a noco gb50 first one melted the second one won't take the charge not to sure about noco I'm gonna try gooloo 4000 it seems to have a lot more power and cranking amps we will see

[@amandac6681]

Hi Jason, I have been a viewer of yours for a while, I am from the UK and an Overland Bound Member. I am just outfitting my GMC truck for some overlanding of North America in December, starting at my dads in Oshawa where the truck was built originally! I was doing my research on the Noco after learning about them from Micheal at Overland Bound, he has the GB70. My question for you is - How is the GB150 doing 3 years later? I am thinking it makes sense to buy the larger capacity GB150 for an extra $150 and have extra watts and Amp hours. Also does it come with the adapter for plugging in the GB150 when at home into a wall outlet or do you have to buy this additionally? keep up the good work and it was nice to discover an oldish video of yours, you have come a long way with your channel well done and hope one day i bump into you on a trail? Best wishes Amanda

[@thatdudederek90]

LoL...I gotta know if you used the unit to charge the camera back up to film the third crank.

[@404notfound.....]

Il take the gooloo 4000!

[@kb3sGaming]

They usb power cord to charge my gb150 is not working i have to change the in usb conection, but I also see 12v in connection so i went on ebay and bought a adapter 12v , 5a ... but the conection is different .any help?

[@chrisfisher3900]

Now you have to do an update video on that CVT im curious

[@PrimalOutdoors]

I am editing together a overview video right at the moment I should hopefully have it up by late today or tomorrow morning. Thanks for watching. Jason

[@Stisse12]

You damange the battery when you disscharge it,, If it goes to low.. Risky business, but a nice demo. Its on my wishlist..

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Your absolutely correct and that is why I mentioned that fact in the video, I am glad you enjoyed the demo. Jason

[@Baerchenization]

My car battery costs almost as much as a GB150... not sure I would do that for a demonstration - why did you not simply disconnect the battery and then start with the GB150?!

[@anotherelvis]

Warning. Doesn't include ac plug in adapter for charging.

[@toddnicoll9711]

What is that tent you have in the bed of your pick up?

[@H.pylori]

Good practical demo of this unit. Thanks. The instruction book is horrible.

[@codyphillips48]

these are some bad little jump boxes. it will start a 7.3 powerstroke with no battery's in it at all. I'm a diesel tech and I use mine on a daily basis and a year later still working like new

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks this is really good to know, I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Jason

[@codyphillips48]

Primal Outdoors I've been watching alot of your videos lately. I really enjoy watching them. only problem I have had is the volt meter stopped working. I also use it to power a 6.7 fuel pump to transfer my used ATF from the 55 gal barrel to truck fuel tank.. keep up the good videos

[@codyphillips48]

Still using mine pretty much on a daily basis. Amazon actually had a like a 10 hour flash sale on them so I bought another one. Still would rate it a 5 out of 5

[@fike301]

cant wait mins.....noco times out 60seconds

[@sergechabot2385]

I sure like to see what this little box would do in -40c in Canada? It might be fine in a +80 f so this is not a real hard test in my book.just saying.

[@Lovecamping290]

Got that right,,, give it a real test, Northern AB Canada, then if it starts a cold diesel,, in -40 then you have something lolol

[@letsshow2456]

if i run a bulb of 12volt 50 watt for how long does a 2000 amps power starter can power it ?

[@mikemotorbike4283]

gb70 HD is rated for 2000 amps on the front, but thats just for the boost. You want a sustained load rating.THe GB HD 70 will give you 1 hr at 60w,, rated on the back for 54 watt hours, tested by another youtuber to last for an hour with a 12v (13.2v actual) 60 watt load.

[@jongarcia7275]

How can i buythis ginous bgb150

[@OregonMike]

Trying to find if it has an "Amp Hour" rating, not seeing one. I'm interested. Nice video on it.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

I don't know either so I asked the company and here is the answer it go. "Since we make our own batteries, I have been told that the aH rating is "proprietary information." NOCO uses joules to measure energy capability. The GB150 is rated at 22,500 Joules 3S"

[@OregonMike]

Primal Outdoors Thanks Jason

[@TheSimplecanadian]

the GB 150 is rated at 8ah or 8000mah. It can discharge 8 amps for 1 hour or 1 amp for 8 hours. I have see a few videos where people took them apart and the battery inside says 8000mah on it

[@picard120]

GB40 is inadequate for 3L gas engine. It couldn't start my Kia Sorento.

[@cameronmcpeak5183]

Got one for 125 at Canadian tire today i am livid.

[@stephenmcdowell9210]

Oh one other thing you would be better buying one that's a bit more powerful it will last all the longer 'I know that the noco gb40 will do most jobs but just go up to a gb50 or gb70 it will start your vehicle all the easier

[@JRJUNIOR215]

how much is worth

[@markellis4229]

That’s good now take Off your battery cables of your mine battery and Try starting your truck with the battery pack it’ self I’ve done that and it works

[@CavemanOutdoorsMissouri]

I have one from RavPower but havent tried it yet

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Its a good thing to have for sure. Thanks for watching. Jason

[@greg925911]

will that work for a AGM battery

[@b1jmaz79]

yes

[@jameskoralewski1006]

You need to buy a jump starter with a supercapacitor if you never want to worry about the charge on your jump starter. See Amazon.

[@nauticsport2123]

Nautic Sport SP18600 - www.nautic-sportinc.com Will easily jump start a v8 gas engine about 12 times on one charge without any battery and about half the price of the GB150, and holds a charge for 6-8 months when not being used. Can charge all USB devices, laptops, and also run 12v accessories at the camp.

[@YankeeDoodle2]

Wow it can even start a ford now that's shocking 😂

[@PrimalOutdoors]

I bet it could even start your brain which would be even more shocking🤣

[@YankeeDoodle2]

@PrimalOutdoors Hook em to my nips and put me in overdrive baby 🤯😵‍💫😵‍💫but seriously ford's do be sucking like that

[@eaboatnuts76]

Why keep taking about diesels if you don't have s diesel..

[@jameskoralewski1006]

GB-150 = $299 from the factory.

[@jameskoralewski1006]

No, you cannot leave this jump starter plugged in after it is fully charged unless you want internal battery damage.

[@fike301]

noco says it can be left plugged in.....?

[@turbomaxx8914]

there isn't any way that that produces 4000 amps considering there GB 30 and their GB 70 you don't produce the amps that they say there are ample to start the vehicle though they no longer list on their website how many Watt hours are on their units if you have Watt hours and voltage you can determine what the discharge is on the battery and on their other units they would have to be at 455 C which means 455 times their amperage that's a huge battery. it would have to be nearly thirty-six amp hour battery 2000 amp is much more believable impossible at this date

[@1cluelessfitness]

buy a wall charger with usb port and charge in home. 💪

[@Lerch.]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp-kgIxufNqZiJY took your video.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Thanks for letting me know Jason

[@bigmutt]

Don't believe ANYTHING written by a reviewer who got the product for free from the seller . No matter how much they insist on being able to be objective, you can't be. it's ridiculous to think that you can.

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Well I guess its a good thing I didn't write anything, lol, the unit worked great for me but I am sure that was very clear from the video and I have since jump started a friends hummer with it and it again work as expected each time and I couldn't be more happy with it. Thanks for watching Jason
