Built-in air compressor and LED spotlight

An On-the-Go Power Source

This 12V DC power source is highly portable and it's ready when you are. Storage mounts for the 50-amp clamps keep clamps safe for longer life and easy portability. A built-in spotlight provides an adjustable, high-intensity beam that's handy in dark conditions or emergency charging situations.

High-Pressure Air Compressor

The attached handy high-pressure air compressor is perfect for filling up all your high-pressure inflating needs, from basketballs to car tires.

Built-In Charger

A built-in charger handles automatic charging of the IP-1875C's internal battery. Easy-to-read battery status LEDs indicate when the internal battery is at Full Power, 75% Charged or 50% or Less and needs to be recharged. #4-gauge, 28" cables stay flexible in the coldest temperatures. A jump start power On/Off switch completely shuts off internal battery at clamps for added safety, eliminating accidental shorting of clamps and battery drain.

Reverse Hookup Protection

Reverse hookup protection safeguards car battery, computer, and other Instant Power uses from damage if the cables are connected to the wrong terminals. An audible alarm warning sounds when clamps are reversed or touched together.

I had this jumper battery for a few months and I didn't use it until now that my friend's Saturn Vue V6 engine was not starting. I connected the clamps to his battery and the car started immediately. The battery status on this unit has 3 lights (red-yellow-green) and is very useful to know when to recharge it. It was on yellow status but it still could start several cars with ease. The air compressor and the flash light on the unit are also very useful. A very handy equipment for the price (when I bought it, it was $80)
I would recommend it.

This combination air compressor/12vdc battery back-up has been in my possession for about one month and has not only successfully pumped up two half-flat auto tires, but seems to have accepted a fairly deep charge via a 120vac extension cord after each use. (I haven't tried recharging the internal battery from an auto battery yet.) Since this doesn't represent a very long-term or comprehensive review, I can only add that the air compressor seems robust if slow; a 10psi increase in tire pressure requiring about 2 minutes. The indicator lights, utility light, and psi guage all seem well-made, and the latter shows the actual pressure while operating, unlike cheaper gauges that only stabilize after shutting off the compressor. My only other concern/comment is that the battery cable clamps are always exposed, one on each side of the unit, and it would be possible to complete the circuit inadvertently if the unit fell into a puddle or was stored haphazardly around wire, since the cable/battery disconnect switch doesn't seem to work and the cables are, therefore, always "live". I'm not sure if this is a serious health hazard, but it certainly increases the chance for a destructive short-circuit and I'd recommend checking the function of your disconnect switch before leaving the unit exposed around children.

Very reliable and convenient charger. We kept this baby in the back of our SUV for months. About a month ago, we finally had a reason to put it to good use when the truck battery went dead. The unit was all set and fully charged when we first took it out of the box and was still fully charged when we needed it. We hooked the cables up to the battery, went to start up the truck and it instantly started up. We have also used the air compressor for our tires many times and it works well. It takes about 2-3 minutes to pump a tire up from 24-36psi. Not too bad for a compact charger. Very happy with this purchase.
