Full details
The B&Q Jump Starter Power Pack is designed for drivers of large vehicles, including heavy-duty trucks and SUVs, who need a reliable emergency backup to restart dead batteries.

FAQs
Will this work on my 5L engine?
Yes, this unit is rated for engines up to 10L gas and 8L diesel, so it will easily handle a 5L engine.
How long does the battery last on a full charge?
If stored in a cool environment, the unit will hold a charge for several months, but we recommend topping it off every 3 months.
Can I use this as a power bank for my phone?
While it is primarily a jump starter, you can use the output ports to charge compatible USB devices.

It guards against common hazards like short-circuiting, over-current, reverse connection, over-temperature, and over-discharge.
Do I need to leave the power pack connected after the engine starts?
No. Once the engine is running, remove the clamps immediately to prevent potential damage to the unit.
Troubleshooting
The device will not start the engine.
Check that the clamps are securely attached to the terminals and free of corrosion. Ensure the battery is charged above 50% capacity.
The LED indicator on the jumper cables is flashing red.
This indicates a reverse polarity or safety error. Disconnect the clamps immediately and reconnect them to the correct battery terminals (red to positive, black to negative).
