This is definately a heavy duty unit all around. No wimpy cables, clamps or switches here. I expect to get good use from this unit for many years. It is great to add to my emergency road & vacation gear, so often handy in these New England winters. Especially nice are the extra long cables that allow maximum applications with ease. It would have been thoughtful to have included a ball/mattress inflator needle as one fits on the compressor connection perfectly. I had a spare & added it. The tire inflator screws onto the tire stem so no match-up problems are encountered. This definately is not a wanna-be, its a real tool & it could save your life (or at least possible frostbite).

I was excited! Got my battery charger in about five (5) days; I plugged in the unit, according to the instruction manual, to charge-up for 72 hours. You can't imagine my disappointment after waiting so long only to find-out that the units' "charged" light wouldn't light up. So now I'm stuck with this thing and have to initiate a fix for this thing. What compicates this process is that it's a. heavy b. hazardous material protcol c. by the time I get any re-solution on this it will be Spring! Should have gone to Sears!! Can't blame Amazon really...just the manufacter.

Bought this unit 13 months ago. Followed the initial charging instructions exactly, and recharged periodically as directed in the manual. Used the unit twice, once to start my car and the other time to add some air to my tires. After only 13 months the unit won't hold a charge. It came with only a 90 day warranty so it's going in the trash. Stay away from this charger.

I purchased this unit 3 months ago. From day 1, the door that holds the air hose will not stay closed which is annoying, but not a deal-breaker. Next, when charging, the 12V charger melted inside the unit which I had to remove with needle nose pliers. The battery also dies quickly just sitting in the back of my trunk and the alarm is annoying if you're driving on the highway with nowhere to pull over every couple of weeks.

Finally, I tried to use the unit for it's intended purpose, jump starting a car with a dead battery. The unit was completely charged, connected and switched on, cranked the ignition and not even a peep. Checked the unit again and it was dead.

Amazon won't let you return the unit, so we'll see if Peak will send a replacement unit and if there will be a charge.

For the price of this unit, it should be much better made. Knowing what I do now, I would have purchased a different product.

I bought one of these in april 2011.

I tryed to use it about 6 months ago to start my diesel truck. It would not do it, I figured that was because the truck takes 2 batteries to start it.

I tried to start a 2004 Grand Pre yesterday with this and it would not work well enough to start the car. I called AAA and they came out with their unit ( slightly smaller ) and thiers had no problem starting the car. I had all but one of the battery charge indicator lights lite. When I tried it on the truck it was freshly / fully charged.

I will have it tested but for now I fell it is NOT RELIABLE.
