At just a 20th the size of a regular car jump starter, can this little LiPo powered power bank really start my car?

    I've jump started my 3L diesel a few times. Not recommended as the standard battery puts out 900 cold cranking amps, and this only puts out 400 amps but it's got me out of trouble and it's tiny.

    Wow I was very impressed. I really did not think it would start it. Good review!

    Wow! It's the size of a book! One kick butt story in that book.

    just purchase these crocodile clips from Ebay or Ali.. they cost 3USD with fuses on one of the lines and use a standard 3cells lipo pack from RC,.
    it should do the job and any kickback would be handle for the shortwhile in that fusepack on one of the lines.

    Never run a car without its battery. Without the battery to pull the voltage down, the alternator could damage the car's power regulator or other electrics, especially if the engine revs. That big black block on the positive alligator clip is indeed a diode, which keep the car from charging the pack back up once it's started. This means the jumpstart pack is out of circuit once the engine is running, and the car is only getting power from its alternator.

    you can start a car with "AAA"' battery also ;-}  At least in the USA – if you are a CURRENT member!

    Please test IT in winter with 0(-20) degree.when car need more power to start even your 1.0…. accus dies only in winter.

    which voltage is lipo battery? 3.7?

    You are cheating. If you haven't took out the long dead car battery. It wouldn't be starting soon. You know it is not the same…

    You can start a car with AA batteries too.

    so what is the lipo an 11.1v how many amps if you were to remove it and capacity test it ?

    Thanks for taking the time to do this experiment. Very interesting indeed!

    Isn't that dangerous to store lipo batteries at full charge for a long time? I mean normally you fully charge this, and leave it in your car for emergencies. Maybe this is the reason for the short lifetime: 3-5 years?

    Those should be included in every car!
