I purchased the PS1100 (no longer made, the PS1118 is similar) a couple years ago and it worked great in all applications until.....I recently tried to use it for starting my 2003 Tundra (V8). I got the loud clicking noise from the solenoid indicating it wasn't getting the needed power to fully engage. Looked up the specs on the truck battery and the PS1100 and found the pS1100 provides "about 400-450 CCA" and the truck battery spec calls for 750 CCA. Bottom line? These portable starters are great unless you have a vehicle that requires higher CCA. If you're not sure, take the time to check what your vehicle requires. If it's over 450 CCA, this unit will probably not start your vehicle, especially if your battery has been severely discharged.

I use these with a converter to run a light, credit card machine, and cash register at trade shows. It lasted all day without problems.

Excellent tool to have around the shop to start disabled vehicles. We had one exactly like it for many years. It finally went bad and we couild not find one like it locally. Thanks to you we found one.

Honest reviews on PowerStation PS1118 Jump Starter

This unit provided the best combinations of features I considered desirable (cold cranking amps) and features I was not interested in (compressor) for the money. An added plus is the ability to recharge directly with just a power cord. Not needing a wall wart is a convenience.
