Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Duracell is the brand that's "trusted everywhere" in households around the world for high-quality, long-lasting batteries and chargers. Following its tradition of superior quality and dependability, Duracell brings you highly reliable, rugged portable power solutions that can be counted on in any situation. From power outages and roadside emergencies to recreation and the great outdoors, you can count on the rugged, yet compact Duracell Powerpack 300 to give you the power you need. If an outlet is not in reach or plugging into the dashboard's cigarette lighter is simply not an option, the Duracell Powerpack 300 is the perfect solution. It comes with a multitude of safety and emergency features, and is powerful enough to start your car and robust enough to provide portable power for small appliances - it even comes with a 250 PSI air compressor to inflate your vehicle's tires, small sports equipment and toys.

The Power to Get the Job Done Safely
The heart of the Duracell Powerpack 300 is a sealed, non-spillable 12 ampere-hour AGM battery. The Powerpack can be safely and conveniently recharged from any household AC outlet or DC cigarette-lighter outlet, making it ready to go whenever you need it. This robust battery is tied to a power inverter that provides 300 watts of power to its two grounded AC outlets and one DC socket. Multiple outlets give you the flexibility and convenience to operate several appliances at once, while the battery level indicator dynamically monitors the Duracell Powerpack's charge level. Internal circuitry ensures long inverter life by protecting against overload and over-temperature conditions. An audible alarm also signals during overheating and under-voltage situations, alerting you to any possible safety concerns.

Powerpack 300 Protects You On the Go
Powerpack's 12-amp battery can jump start most 4-cylinder engines with its included jumper cables. A reverse polarity detector further ensures your safety by disallowing power transfer in the event that the jumper cables are connected to the incorrect battery terminals. Duracell Powerpack 300 also provides ample power to recharge cordless and cellular telephones. At the same time, small appliances, laptops, televisions and portable stereos will run for hours. Long battery life and an integrated, detachable ultra-bright LED flashlight mean you'll never be left in the dark.
Perfect for Outdoor Adventures
From remote job sites to the family picnic, Duracell Powerpack's portability makes it an excellent choice for any outdoor adventure. It is strong enough to run power tools and equipment in the wilderness. The 300-watt power inverter also lets you bring some of the comforts of home to your campsite or outing. Small appliances, portable coolers, laptops, televisions and gaming consoles will run for hours. Duracell Powerpack 300 means you'll never be left in the dark. If planning a longer trip without an access to a traditional power source, small, unregulated 12 V solar panels, rated to produce a maximum of 2.5 A (or 30 W), can be used to charge the Duracell Powerpack through the AC charger input socket. Please refer to users' manual for instructions.

Comes Equipped with Everything You Need
The Duracell Powerpack 300 includes several convenient accessories. Compatible jumper clamps allow you to jump start your vehicle and they conveniently store in the unit while not in use The AC adapter recharges the unit from any standard wall outlet and stows away inside the unit when not in use. A DC charging cable can be inserted into any standard cigarette-lighter outlet, providing rechargeability on-the-go in any automobile, boat, or RV. Multiple nozzle adapters ensure the possibility to inflate a variety of items from car tires to footballs.

CA = Cranking Amps: the amount of current an automotive battery can deliver for 30 seconds at 32° F, without dropping below a specified cut-off voltage (usually 10.5 volts). CCA = Cold Cranking Amps: the amount of current an automotive battery can deliver for 30 seconds at 0° F, without dropping below a specified cutoff voltage (usually 10.5 volts).
Note: When selecting a jump-starter the CCA performance rating should meet or slightly exceed, you vehicle manufacturer's recommendation OR it should be suitable for the coldest temperatures in your climate.
Note: When selecting a jump-starter, do not base you decision on the manufacturer's noted "Peak Amps." High peak amp value does not guarantee the performance of the jump-starter. Refer to CA and CCA values instead and align them with your vehicle manufacturer's specifications.
The Duracell Powerpack 300 is a sealed, non-spillable 14 amp-hour AGM battery. It can be safely and conveniently recharged from any household AC out or DC cigarette lighter outlet, making it ready to go whenever you need it.

Customer Reviews

I'd purchased a Black ; DEcker Starter earlier this year from Amazon and it was a piece of junk. It NEVER worked; left my 16-yr old daughter stranded twice. This Duracell, however, lived up to its reputation: the air compressor is a very nice added bonus. If there is a downside, it is it takes a very long time to recharge (often overnight). It will recharge from the car's cigarette lighter outlet while the car's running, so this is a minor quibble.

I bought this product after reading all the good reviews but I did not notice that no one that reviewed the product has used it as a jump starter yet, all reviews talks about how fast it will recharge while driving and how nice the order process was or the use of the air compressior.
I had to use it to jump start my car once after 3 months of purchase and it seems not to have enough power to do so, however it works on jump starting a smaller car with 4 cylinders. I charged it fully and attempted to start multiple times with no luck.
I guess if you are looking for a real jump starter then do not count on this unit for emergencies.
