Yes they are brilliant i have this one but remember paying alot more for it a year ago!
It save a kiddie's ass in his Porsche twice on a Petrol head tour but hampered me as i had to wait for him so we set off at the back.
Highly recommended.

It was Sam aka GroundControl who had it.
I remember chatting about the starter pack and couldn't believe that something so small and light, could jump start cars with our sized engines. Unfortunately, my memory is like a sieve and didn't take in what manufacturer his one was.
Shoot him a PM and he might respond, great guy but an infrequent forum user - memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=34363

Well I can confirm 10v is not enough power to get the car started, got the car connected up to the pack saw the 12.9 volts on the indicator and the car started fine thought this things where just a gimmick.

Mine is this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/jp3/18000mAh ... B01CFJO88S. Looks pretty similar to the one RS04YOB has ended up with.
Amazing little thing - easily started the RS4 first go from dead flat.
