Another Christmas gift idea - a rugged looking, high capacity power bank with lots of lighting modes, USB charge outputs, a multi-voltage output and car battery jump start capability. Unfortunately, the multi voltage output is limited in current and doesn't seem to like inductive loads.
Note: Some items in this video were supplied at no cost.

    After being stuck with a dead battery, I'm in the market for one of these. Amazing how they can fit all that power into such a small unit. I will soon sadly retire my trusty jumper cables of 30 years.

    My DBPower Jump Starter (exact same screen and input/outputs and buttons as the Suaoki). Using the output jack for laptop to power a .15A computer fan, it shuts off after 30 seconds, like it's in a power saving mode. Maybe it needs more amps to keep it running. If I plug my phone into one of the USB ports and the little computer fan at the same time the fan continues to run.

    I don't understand. My jumper starter is brand new. But the battery life is 2%. So charge it right? But do I leave it on or off when I plug it up?

    The DC motor in that air pump is 20 watts WHEN RUNNING. Startup current on a DC motor is much higher than running current. I'm not surprised that the 2 amp output can't spin that up. If you have a SPDT switch and get the air pump running from a serious battery, the 12 volt output of the Suaoki might keep it running.

    Having had tube type 2 way radio gear in a '57 Chevy (with the 250 volts for the radio produced by dynamotors) I'm very aware of the DC motor start vs run power requirements.

    Ive had a Suaoki T3 for a year or so (think that model is discontinued now). It has very similar specs although isn't rubber coated, just has LEDs to indicate the battery level and output voltage (no LCD) and only has 1 USB port. When I bought it I was dubious as I'd never heard of Suaoki, it's still going strong and survived a month starting a car with a naff battery daily (yep, it took me a while to bother replacing the car battery!), it needed charging every 3 to 4 days doing that! The only issue that I had was the air compressor died; a couple of emails later and Suaoki sent a replacement out from China which arrived in around 1 week (to the UK).

    Moral of the story, Suaoki make pretty decent gear and have great customer service; if my well used T3 ever dies I'll most likely replace it with another Suaoki jump starter.
