The sales pitch on the web page is pretty hilarious, and very apt for this slick deals posting since you can't really tell much about it:

Wow, that looks really technical. I bet it's great at uh, whatever it does. I'm sorry what the heck IS this thing?

Really needs this in the title... Compact Portable Car Jump Starter

Remember that it's in mWH not mAH

I love my bolt it can jump my car like 50 times on a single charge but this comes out to like 5000mah or something. Still a well made product and it's been around for a decade so old hardware

Yes there it is, 4000 mAh I over shot. If you check past posts this week you'll find that 15000mah is what you're shooting for at this price point

Also even with your math it's 8800 at 5v.

My math, it's from their spec sheet though right? At 12v. But yeah maybe mWH is a better way to measure because of the different voltages you might be using it for

Damn I didn't realize multiplication and addition were so perplexing these days.

Aaanyhow, bought 88.6wH with far more copper in the jumper accessories, USB-C charging etc in late 2020 for $60 (discounted from only $70). Still running strong, even started a buddy's diesel so I gave that >1200A rated one to him and bought a newer one for $50.

Overpriced, not UL listed, no sense pin on accessory clamps, very basic USB (not actually QC etc)… so hard pass on this thing(
