What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The grepro car jump starter seems well made and i have no qualms that this is a well manufactured bit of kit. It is well built and very compact. For the size of it i'm totally impressed.
There is an inbuilt torch which will come in handy when working under the bonnet in the dark. It even has a 12v adaptor to power appliances that would usually use the cigarette lighter socket. It includes a powerful torch too.
Always supposing that you have another vehicle to connect them to. These gadgets make it so much easier - and you don't need to rely on the kindness of passing motorists. This is a very clever gadget, its very well made, looks as good as i’ve seen.
The charger and all the accessories fit in to compact, well-made carry case. Comes in a sturdy fabric bag in which you can keep the hardware and the instructions safe. Sometimes you find you need a degree in packing to get things back into the case.
This is so phenomenally useful i have no idea how i did without it. Keeping charge in unit easy via in car auxiliary point. I still like the reassurance of having this with me.
Cons
The big downside is the cable is so short, meaning that if the battery contacts are not on the battery you can't really use it. This is a problem for bmws (as an example) which provide different connection points.

The cables for connecting to a vehicle battery seem a bit on the short side – around 36cm
