jump starter /charger

Post by art walsh » Tue Jul 27, 2021 4:29 pm

I have 3 vehicles, each has a Halo Bolt 58830 jump starter box in it.
This model has 58830 MWH storage. 2 - 5V 2.4Amp USB outlets. Great for charging phones, laptops etc.
Also, a 110V 65W(max) outlet plus a flashlight.
Will be bringing all three - one in reserve in case need to jump a car or two. Two to power 3watt LED bulb (25watt equiv) . 20 hrs run time per charge.
Also, bringing 200W inverter. Can recharge jump boxes if needed.

It appears that you have all the toys . . phones have be kept charged . . Even when they are turned off . . It keeps roaming to find a tower . . I carry big storage battery . . Can charge it (w/ a amp meter in line) off the car . . Then drain it (w/ a volt meter in series) into the bike batteries . . Small sealed battreies can't take a fast charge ..
I'm the contraptioneer your mother warned you about.
