I could not stand the rinky dink 12v cigarette plug low volume compressors to pump up tires. Plus I go in areas where there is no AAA help or cell phone connect, so if you get a flat or need a jump you maybe on your own. This Jump and Carry Start/compressor power source is of battleship construction. Built to last. This is what the professionals use .

I pumped up 8 ATV tires that need a few pounds more each. Then pumped up 4 big van tires. One needed 18 lbs more, the other three 5 pounds more each to 38lbs. Then 4 truck tires 5 more pounds each to 40 lbs. This means to me that this compressor will easily pump up a flat after putting in temporary green slime or a low spare tire. Could of even pumped up my 4 travel trailer tires also. All this on 1 charge. The compressor kept on putting out fast large volume air. It got a little warm but not hot. Shut off compressor each time a tire was filled and checked the built in gauge to a good tire pressure separate gauge. Accurate.

I put it on recharge plugged into the wall with an extension cord and it was still in the good green after all this tire filling.

This compressor pumped up the tires very quickly. Much much faster than those low volume 12V cigarette plug compressors. Shut off compressor and looked at the gauge. It was accurate compared to a good tire gauge.

I have not had to jump start a car yet. Will add to post when I go. The alligator clamps are solid heavy duty and a good length of heavy duty jump cable supplied. This is a first rate unit, battleship construction and built to last. 5 stars

I keep the unit topped off charged once a month just to make sure its topped off and has a full charge.I always keep the unit in the truck when I go on long distance travel. If I break down at least I can pump up a tire or jump my battery by myself.

Oct30. My daughter's boyfriend bought over an ATV. Jump started it instantly with the Solar Jump N Carry. Jump N Carry had been sitting a month. Very old ATV battery was dead and did not take a charge with a battery charger.

June 14 Checked and topped off 4 van tires and 2 ATVs ( 8 tires).

June 16. Filled up ATV tire ( flat after pumping in Green Slime) effortlessly same charge on Jump N Carry as June 14.

June17 2011. Big battery to truck bad. Just click click no turn over. Connected Jump N Carry... same charge as June 14.Started truck in 2 cranks err err. Took truck in for service. Bad battery... shorted cell. Had to buy new battery. Glad I have the Jump N Carry around. Easy to use.. took less than 3 minutes.

June 16, 2012 Unit is still working perfect. Family and I have used it at least 70 times to start cars and big trucks and fill up tires (can go up to 60psi). Also have used it as a power source via the supplied female cigarette plug enclosure to run my moving 20 inch telescope. Lasted all night long!

I own this unit and it is built to last. Jump N Carry is what a lot of professionals use because it does the job. With 1700 peak amps you can start about anything. The added air compressor and 12V power source is also a great feature out there in the field. You can buy cheaper imitations like the other fellow but eventually you will be back to get a Jump N Carry.

I bought the Jump-N-Carry without the air compressor about 10 months ago for a 13 year old Tahoe that has electrical issues that no one seemed to be able to figure out and I loved it! The alternator caught fire while driving (long story), so it had to be towed for repair. The AAA service station that towed it to replace the alternator stole it! Of course they denied it! Anyway...I loved it so much that I bought another one and upgraded to the one with air compressor. When it arrived, I took it out of the box, plugged it in for 24 hours...hooked it up and and the Tahoe (totally dead battery) started right up on the first crank!!! I am not a mechanic by any means, so if I can use this device anyone can! I highly recommend it.

Honest reviews on Jump-N-Carry JNCAIR 1700-Amp 12-Volt Jump Starter with Power Source

I own 3 Clore Booster packs. One of them is the one with the built in inflator. These units are well built. They perform as advertised. I have had no issues with the chargers at all. I would prefer if they put battery indicator lights on these units as well. The 660 now has the indicator light and the battery protection which doesn't allow an overcharge. The older units have to be charged as per specs or you could damage the units.

Amazon states that your can return items at any time during the first 30 days. Not true. On this item your only option is to deliver it to the local hazmet facility. Goodbye $227.

When the "Jump N Carry" arrived I read all the instructions and followed the instructions to charge it. The charge gage showed it was already charged half way through the green zone. I plugged it in for 24 hours. The charge gage did not move. I have to assume that it is not charging.

When I went to return it, I was instructed to deliver it to the municipal facility for disposal of hazardous waste.

"For safety reasons, items that are classified as hazardous materials or use flammable liquids or gases cannot be returned to Amazon.com. Customers should dispose of hazardous materials according to Local, State and Federal regulations. Customers should contact their local government or local waste company for directions on how to dispose of Household Hazardous Waste."

Why is it they can ship it to me, but I cannot ship it back to them?

I went back and looked at the page from which I ordered the item. I could find nothing that said that a defective product could not be returned.

In short, Amazon is telling me my only remedy is to send this $227 (including shipping) White Elephant to the dump. This is probably a deceptive trade practice.

This is the third product I have purchased from Amazon in the past twelve months that failed within a year. The infra-red, convection-air rotisserie and the induction coil hot plate failed after the 30 day return date, but in less than six months.

Books from Amazon are o.k. but nothing with moving parts or electrical circuits. Consider whether you are better off purchasing such items from Wal-Mart, Target or Auto-Zone. You may have to pay sales tax (it was $2 less than shipping in this case), but you can drive down the street to return it.
