She was readying the car for a long road trip and by accident left the car on. Battery was quite dead. We own a Prius and one of the quirks is that if the car is jumped with too much power it resets the computer and the windows don't work right. We experienced that a few years ago when a friend jumped our car.
The Wagan was fresh out of the box (we had only gotten it the day before). Fully charged and ready to go. I went outside, hooked up the Wagan to the two posts in the fuse box and we started the car. Less than five minutes from learning the car battery was dead to having it run again. That was because I had to go in the house and get the charger...
Suffice to say, the Wagan is kept in the car all the time-even when space is a premium. We know that if we get a flat, the unit can inflate the tire long enough to get to safety.
The flashlight is bright and even though as the other reviewer states the doors are flimsy, but we are not rough with it.
We haven't used it as such but it will power lights for a few hours while car camping.
It can be used for charging any electrical devices or even running a shaver! They thought of everything and if there is any deficiency, it is that there's almost too much to use it for.
We like this mobile power unit and recommend it to anyone owning a vehicle dependent on electricity to start.
Bottom Line:
WE FEEL MUCH SAFER WITH THE WAGAN ALONG!I read a bunch of reviews before I purchased this product, And was very impressed! however I must have missed that ONE review that spoke about the compressor and the power check button. I used the compressor to inflate my tire on my 300 zx and the Damn thing started smoking!, "like it was about burning out." So me in my infinite wisdom turned it off. I then checked the power by pushing the power button and it broke!, "what the hell", I though. Now I had this this thing for about two months and only used it once. So be very careful and make sure you read all the reviews before you purchase it.The first one I bought had a short inside so it would never charge all the way and would quickly run out of battery without me doing anything. I replaced this with a new one and everything works fine. The speakers make a weird whirling sound when I play music through them but they are not pro-speakers so what do ya expect. the flashlight is fine and so are the inverters, built in fan keeps the unit from overheating as well. I look forward to using all the features.A great size to leave in your car, as a woman, this is the perfect piece of equipment, when you are on the road alone.
All The men in my family loved this Christmas gift.I have received 2 separate deliveries of these from Amazon, and both of them did not had all of the functions working.
The whole area with the clock, FM Radio, and plugging in a music device to use the speakers is non-functional. When I got the first
one it was DOA upon arrival. Amazon sent me a second one, and it worked for one day and died after the second day. It seems like there
is a loose plug jack in that section, but there is no way to get to it, so it is worthless. I called Wagman and told them of the
problem. They said there is nothing that they can do about it since you cannot sent back a sealed battery through the mail or a carrier.
Not recommended.
