Product Information
Full details
This Einhell Booster Cable (model BT-BO 25/1 A LED SP) is designed for vehicle owners needing a reliable way to jump-start a dead battery. Its key benefit is enhanced safety and visibility during use, thanks to LED lighting and electronic voltage spike protection. A potential consideration is its aluminum conductor, which requires careful handling compared to pure copper for optimal conductivity.

FAQs
What is the maximum current rating for these booster cables?
The Einhell BT-BO 25/1 A LED SP Booster Cable has a maximum current rating of 350 Amperes.
What makes these cables different from standard booster cables?
These cables feature integrated LED lights on the terminal pliers for better visibility and electronic protection against voltage spikes, enhancing safety during jump-starting.
Can I use these cables on any vehicle?
They are designed for 12V vehicle electrical systems and are suitable for most gasoline and diesel engines within certain displacement limits. Always refer to your vehicle's manual.
What is the conductor material and its equivalent in copper?
The conductor material is aluminum with a cross-sectional area of 31.4 mm², which is equivalent to 25 mm² of copper cable in terms of conductivity.
How long is the cable?
The cable length is 3.5 meters (350 cm).
Is a carrying case included?
Yes, the booster cables come with a practical carry bag for storage and transport.
Are these cables compliant with any safety standards?
Yes, they are compliant with DIN 72553-25 standards.
Troubleshooting
Vehicle does not start after attempting a jump-start.
Ensure all clamps are securely connected to the correct terminals (+ to +, - to unpainted metal). Check that the good battery's vehicle is running and has been for a few minutes. The dead battery may be completely unserviceable or the jump-start may not provide enough charge. In some cases, a longer charging period might be necessary.
LED lights on pliers do not turn on.
Check the connection of the LED module within the plier head. Ensure the battery inside the plier housing (if applicable, consult manual) is functional and correctly installed. Inspect the wiring for any breaks.
Sparks occur when connecting clamps.
Ensure the final black clamp is connected to an unpainted metal surface away from the battery and fuel lines, not directly to the negative terminal of the dead battery. Double-check that both vehicles are turned off before connecting.
Cables feel excessively warm during use.
This could indicate a poor connection or an excessive current draw beyond the cable's rating. Disconnect immediately and inspect all connections. If the issue persists or if the cable is unusually hot, discontinue use.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Enhanced safety with electronic voltage protection.
- Improved visibility in dark conditions due to LED lights on pliers.
- Sufficient length (3.5m) for versatile use.
- Includes a convenient carrying case for storage.
- Robust, fully insulated terminal pliers.
Cons
- Aluminum conductor may be less durable than copper over time.
- Requires careful handling to maintain conductivity.
- Maximum current of 350A might be insufficient for very large engines.
Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure both vehicles are parked close enough for the 3.5-meter cables to reach, but not touching. Turn off both vehicles and remove keys from the ignition. Connect the red (+) clamp to the positive terminal of the dead battery, then connect the other red (+) clamp to the positive terminal of the good battery. Connect the black (-) clamp to the negative terminal of the good battery, and finally, connect the other black (-) clamp to an unpainted metal surface on the engine block or chassis of the vehicle with the dead battery, away from the battery itself. Start the good vehicle and let it run for a few minutes. Then, attempt to start the vehicle with the dead battery. Once started, carefully remove the cables in the reverse order: black from the chassis, black from the good battery, red from the good battery, and red from the dead battery.
Compatibility: This booster cable is generally compatible with 12V vehicle electrical systems. While rated for a maximum of 350A, it is best suited for gasoline engines up to approximately 2500cc and diesel engines up to approximately 2000cc. Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual before jump-starting.
Care: After each use, clean the terminal pliers and cable ends with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or corrosion. Inspect the cables and insulation for any signs of damage, cuts, or wear. Store the cables in the provided carry bag in a dry, protected location, away from extreme temperatures and sharp objects. Avoid kinking or tightly coiling the cables, as this can damage the conductor.
