As soon as I used this jump starter to attempt a start of my lawn tractor, it signaled that it needed to be charged despite the fact that this was the first use after it was initially charged until the green light came on.

I recharged it until the green light came back on and tried again to charge the lawn tractor battery-still nothing.

I finally used a plug in battery charger and that did the trick. I don't know how useful this unit would be if I needed it to jump start a car battery.

So far has worked perfectly for light home use. I've used it several times to start everything from my mower to my GMC van. Great to have around.

The thing work as advertised. It went for about two weeks without a charge, while handling five or six jump starts. The power docking station is handy just plug in a make a space for it to sit. The light is a nice feature that I haven't had a used yet, but it does leave you with a peace of mind to know that it's there.

There is only one downside to it, the charge indicator LEDs don't work properly. On my unit two lights come on when you check button, Fully Charged and Needs Charging. It may be a defect in my unit, other than that it works perfectly

Bought the item arrived fine, tried to charge the unit didn't work. This is what happens when you buy Made in China crap, you waste your time and effort. I would stay away from this Brand Totally, simply waste of time.

I purchased this product on Amazon over a year ago and it never fails to work and charge my battery properly and quickly. I only wish the cables were longer so that I could rest the charger on the ground while the battery recharges even for just a few minutes. The work light also comes in very handy. The charger can also power up other smaller items as well. Good product overall.

Liked this power booster very much! It is very well though out product it occupy very little space and very easy and convenient to use. Like they say good things come in the small packages ;-) Best thing of all it is always ready when you needed because it sits in the base charging pad and stays always charged. So grab yours and be ready to jump anything you will need to jump !!!
