Don't get stuck with a weak or dying battery! This Porta-Jump emergency Jump Starter will help put your car, minivan or light truck back on the road and on your way home in very little time. Its small size and convenient design make it a must-have for your automotive tool kit.
Patented test, charge and drive adapter cord - jump starts your vehicle from inside without wrestling with jumper cables, lifting the hood or flagging down strangers for help - just use your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket. The cord helps test your electrical system to let you know if it's safe to recharge your battery.
Short charging cycle - takes only about 10 minutes
Easy to recharge - after the vehicle is started and you are underway simply switch the charge indicator from the forward position to the rear position. This lets your vehicle's alternator re-charge the power pack for your next use. Usually 40 minutes of driving time will restore the battery pack to it's original voltage.
Handy tote bag with drawstring - helps you easily store your Porta-Jump and its adaptor cord.
Designed for 4, 6, 8 cylinder gas and diesel-powered cars, light trucks or SUVs that operate on a 12 volt electrical system. Not for use in diesel-powered vehicles.
Will not recharge a battery that has exceeded the manufacturer's stated life, a battery that has not been recently in service or a battery that is mechanically defective.
Before attempting to jump start your discharged battery, insert the adaptor cord into the cigarette lighter or power port to test the electrical system. If you observe a "GREEN" light on the adapter it is OK to proceed with the charge. No green light? Do not attempt to charge and call for professional help.
Manufacturer's recommended operating temperature range should be between -15 degrees F and +120 degrees F.
Manufacturer's stated "use before" date is stamped on each Porta-Jump. That date is 5 years from the date of manufacture, however many units operate for longer periods of time.

Useless / Greer, CA5/19/2008 Didnt work! I got two of these and it was too late to send them back after trying one that didnt work. Glad I hung on to my cables.
Porta Jump will Leave You Out In The Cold / , IL4/29/2008 I left the map light on in my car over the week end. I tried using the Porta Jump device. It would not charge the battery. This was a brand new car with a brand new battery. I had to call a motor club. This product did absolutley no good for me. Don''t waste your money.

Saved me in the middle of nowhere! / Beau, CA3/7/2008 I go out riding on my dirt bike at least once a month. This last time I happened to bring my new toy, this porta jump! Well, thank God, because we were out in the middle of nowhere and when we returned to my truck, the battery was dead! The porta jump worked fast and easy, and saved us from a lot of time and trouble!!
