I remember when we used to use these super heavy jumpstartes back in the day. Now we have this handheld device that weighs less than a brick and has all the features we could need. We charge our phone and camera batterys and this is so useful for trips out into the woods, where you may be far away from cell signal so if your car dies you're stuck for an unknown amount of time. We have only needed to jump our jeep once in the past year (last weekend), but it turned our poor experience into a happy one. The battery still had a little juice left and our lights were on but when you turn the key the starter clicked repeatedly and our lights shutoff. It took less than 2 minutes to remove it from the case, attach the cables to the unit, hook them up directly on the battery terminals, watch the green blinky light turn solid, and turn the key. This is a stellar solution and we are ashamed we diddn't switch over sooner.
The case is a bit of a fingerprint magnet, but honestly its more for emergency use so it doesn't matter to us.
