For about half a c-note, you really cant beat it. Unit is approx 11" x 11" x 6" tall (when setting flat on floor, including cables and protrusions). Full charge shows 13v on the display. I bought this for my sister to keep in her car and to take along on side-by-side trail rides. Charges via typical 2-prong AC extension cord (no special power adapter or anything to keep track of). The air pump is digital, which is convenient. Display illuminates indigo blue. The display shows remaining voltage and a battery bar. Dual usb ports @ 2 amps. The light is positioned so it will shine straight ahead and slightly up, which would be about right for working on a flat in the dark. Beeps if you connect the jump leads backwards on the battery. I aired several tires back to back (lawn equipment, atv, truck) and the pump worked as expected. After several tires, batt gauge still at 3/4. For the money, i have no complaints. Its a perfect size for my sister and/or trail riding without feeling sub standard or "iffy". Not as heavy and cumbersome as my other "full sized" packs that have inverters and whatnot built in. The air pump will offer piece of mind when out on the trail (paired with a tire plug kit) That said, here are my criticisms. ... Would be nice to have a cover over the button and usb panel. One similar to the rubber cover on the charge connector would be ideal. Just seems like it would be easy for the unit to be powered on accidentally if something hit the buttons (air, light, or usb, not jump function), leaving it drained in an emergency. Also, seems like common sense to, at the bare minimum, put covers over the usb ports. Wpuld be really nice to have a storage compartment on the unit for storing a tire plug kit or other emergency items. Seems like theres a fair amout of hollow real estate in the handle area, and with a little bit different case design, could easily offer a place to store related items. The case feels sturdy overall. The handle itself is rubberized, but the rest is smooth plastic. The jump start knob looks like cheaper plasitc tho, and the label sticker on the button panel needed smoothed out where it was lifting a lil bit. Not a big deal, just cosmetics. The pack doesnt stand up straight. Wants to lean toward the top side. Would be nice it it stood up. Really, its designed to set flat on the ground. The jump cable clamps are all metal with powder coating. Feel sturdy. Leads are 24" from box to tip of terminal clamps. I havent jumped anything yet, but im confident it will do just fine. Idk if i would expect this box to jump large trucks or handle a lot of back to back to back jumps, such as in commercial fields. But for occasional residential and/or emergency use, it hits the mark, and the price vs features makes a very attactive product.Read full review

This is great for home use only. The air compressor works great if you're airing up a bicycle tire. Loses charge fast after a full charge with no use. If this is like new, I would hate to see how a new one functions.

bought this Everstart Jump Start box from Walmart. I was driving across country and I was having starting issues, so I thought it would be a good idea to have it - just in case I got stranded in a remote area. Also, I like that it has a USB port, light and compressor. I'll review all three items separately, then give a summary. Jump Start feature: It works. As long as the battery isn't completely dead, it'll start a car. I had a dead battery on a Honda Accord V6 and it wouldn't start the car. If the battery is weak, it gives enough boost to start it. I live in a warm climate, so I don't know how this works when it's cold out. My guess is that it may not work, but I haven't tested it, so I don't know. Note that the clamps have large pieces of plastic, which doesn't feel like it's well made. Also, the bulk makes it a little challenging clamping to the battery terminals. USB Ports and light: The USB ports are a handy feature. I used them a few times and they work great. The light is so-so. Not very bright, but better than nothing. Compressor feature: I am very disappointed with the compressor. I used it two times and it no longer works. The compressor turns, but no air pressure. What concerns me is what happens if someone is stranded at a remote area and gets a flat tire. This compressor isn't reliable, so don't depend on it! Overall, the unit is okay. For a completely dead battery, this isn't a good choice. Even though it's rated at 750 Amps, it should work, but it doesn't. Most times you won't have a completely dead battery, so this shouldn't be an issue. The USB port is great! Love it! The light is good in a pinch and doesn't drain the battery. The compressor - just ignore this feature, so you aren't disappointed when it doesn't work. I gave it three stars. Would've given it more if it would've performed better. There are better units out there.Read full review

Doesn't hold a charge long as if you need to try to start your car a second time it's going to need to be charged for the second jump but as far as the light and USB charger and even The tire pump it works great just not the best battery booster pack for the actual car battery

This is amazing product and well worth the price. Jump start a dead battery, check the psi on your tires and fill as needed, two usb charger outlets and an led work light. Saves me the headache of having to find a working air pump in the winter when my psi in my tires get low. Or where I work, most common issue in cold weather is people’s car batteries dying. So overall, is is a must in your car because you never know if you’ll be in a pinch and you need something to get you out of that pinch.
