Anker ROAV - Jump Starter Pro - Black

I live to be prepared and I even have jumper cables in my 2017 tacoma, but since I have a lot of stuff going on when my truck isn’t even on, it drains my battery like my dash cam and viper alarm. Since we are supposed to be shelter in place, my truck doesn’t get a lot of action to recharge my battery. I tried to jump it the last time it died using my Audi and that car is such a hassle just to get to the batter (since it’s in the trunk under the spare tire) I decided to look into a portable battery jump Starter. Literally just bought it yesterday, and my truck died this morning. Sadly, I was excited to see if my new toy will work and wouldn’t you know it, jumped my truck with no issues. My tacoma is a 2017 trd sport 4x4 with a V6 3.5 liter engine.

Love this purchase will be buying another one if I get the chance to for my girlfriends car

This little jumper has saved us so many times in a pinch when we were not in a place where we could get a jump from another car. Also when we could have called AAA we jumped ourselves and saved a long wait. See the photo where we broke down on the St Charles bridge. Once the traffic stopped and i was able to jump out it took about 1 minute.

I’m so glad I bought this when it was a deal of the day! Had I known it’s capabilities I would have gladly paid full price. The other day I had to re-park a vehicle to wash prior to selling, it had been sitting since Covid shut everything down. So about 3 months. I tried the classic jump start method with cables and attaching the ground to a ground on the recipient vehicle and after 30 mins it still wouldn’t start. I remembered I bought this little guy so i briefly charged it up to 3 out of 4 bars, popped the cables that it came with on the dead car and Voila! No kidding this thing booted it right up!! I also recently brought it up to our cabin over the 4th, it was used to charge 2 iphones from dead to 80%. The charges were a separate times each, but it can do 2 at a time with the 2 usb ports. I don’t like charging my phones past 80% but it maybe could have taken them to 100%. it also took the latest gen ipad not pro cheaper one from 16% to about 64% before shutting down. This thing is a beast and I would totally recommend it for anyone. Side note, I think it takes 1hr plus to fully charge from dead to full, maybe like 2 hours and I don’t think you can charge it and your devices at the same time, or maybe I’m not smart enough to figure it out lol. I wish I could add pics but it’s slightly larger then the average hand. It’s like holding a VHS tape only a bit smaller in length. What’s a VHS tape?!?! hahaha

When I saw this as a Deal of the Day, I decided to give it a try. I charged it when I got it, then had it for a couple of months before I had a chance to really test it. After sitting for a month with an old battery that barely make the dome light glow, it spun over the 4.0 6 cyl engine of my Jeep, like it had a fully charged battery. Later that day, I used it to start a friends 12HP lawn tractor that had been sitting for 2 years. (Totally stone cold dead!) Again, spun over as if it had a full charge. There is no waiting for it to charge the dead battery, as with a battery charger. I connected it, got in/on the vehicle and started it. After starting both, the booster still had 3?4 charge left in it. This was a spring day, in the 60s. I've yet to see how it does at 10 below... I expect it to perform well then, too. It comes in a soft zippered pouch. It's a solid little package.

I swear by these types of products as roadside safety essentials for families or those living and traveling alone. This unit was purchased because of the large cranking capacity for truck and car use. The dual utility as a usb battery pack makes it something you can use regularly and accordingly top off the charge regularly. Just be aware that on a bigger vehicle you will only get a few boost opportunities on a charge as opposed to the bigger “full size” battery packs. prices fluctuate as BestBuy marketing algorithms dictate. These types of products are must haves.

Excellent. Does the job. Only used once, but my dead Tiguan fired up first try with this jump starter from Anker. It is a little more expensive than other units with similar specs. But Anker is known for supporting their products with excellent customer service. So for me, that's worth a few extra bucks. Definitely recommend.

Love this Product Jump started my car in a second and the battery was completely dead. I 100% recommend this product to anyone who may be thinking about getting this. I am planning another one to keep in my car just in case I gave this one to my wife for emergencies. The usb ports and flash light are a great bonus.
