So you have to wait for the device to "charge" before you can jump?

So it has a hard start capacitor?

What kind of track record does this thing have? I read reviews of people saying the buttons random stop working. Doesn't give much confidence in something that is needed in emergency situations

Jump N Carry jumpers have been around for decades and are used by PennDOT's Safety Patrol Division and usually AAA guys use them too. They also provide you with a lifetime repair/replacement service coupon where you can mail the jumper back to them and no matter what condition it's in, they will repair or replace the entire thing for $50-$75 depending on the model

Classic jump n carry uses lead acid batteries. Lead acid batteries can support high current draws, but they work best with frequent use. Even with frequent use they'll die in 3-6 years. With infrequent use, they'll die in 1-3 years. It's also dangerous to overcharge them. All of this makes them perfect for those who use it multiple times a day like AAA and other emergency response crews, but poorly suited for homeowners who'll probably use it once every few months. Lithium jump starters are much better for homeowners because they can last a long time even with very occasional use.

This is actually a really good deal. This tool has not been on sale much, and it also includes the battery!

For those saying we should use a lead acid or one of those other LION ones like NOCO, I carry a Ryobi impact wrench and inflator already. Having a single battery for all my tools I carry with me for emergencies is a huge plus for me.

I bought one for me. Thanks OP!

The guy that mentioned JNC knows whats up
We have gone through tons of jumpers including NOCO, they are great the first year but they ALL go bad eventually. JNC is the only one you can use for 5 years+

lead acid JNCs are the best. battery will last way longer than 3-6 years... requires a minimum level of responsibility though... plugging it into the charger every 3mo or so. that's not hard bro, come on.my 300XL just died last month (the battery light flashes). it was bought during a SD FP deal in 2012 for $49.99 from amazon, you can probably even still look it up in the old SD thread. so 12 1/2 years. Clore Automotive sent me a brand new one for $50 + $11.53 shipping, so $62 ( I could have bought a new battery for $40, but might as well use the service repair coupon). my 660 is 6 yrs old and counting, 0 issues and battery works great.i will gladly take a lead acid Jump N Carry over some Ryobi jumper with finnicky buttons, circuitry, and reliance on a non-user-replaceable capacitor. this thing won't last in the long term. as a reminder you are trying to make your discussion about the battery, the question that was raised is about the reliability of the ryobi jumper DEVICE itself, not the 18V battery
JNC (Clore Automotive) Warranty as stated is stated as one year, just like everyone else....

The discussion has nothing to do with a 1 year warranty

Everything goes bad "eventually". [img]https://i.slickdeals.net/images/smilies2/dontknow.gif[/img]

I had a NOCO Genius Sport in my previous car since 2018 due to mystery parasitic drain and it's now in my current car.
So far this year, I've jumped my friend's Prius twice, his father's Yukon, coworker's Suburban, my manager's MB GLC and my neighbor's Prius.
In August, I jumped my own car 5 times when the battery died at work and I drove to Autozone then Costco for a new battery. That's on a single charge and I could have gone at least another jump.

I have lots of ryobi tools and batteries, so I would have tried this if I didn't already have 2 other jump starters. Few years back I bought duracell lithium charger, was never able to jump start with it, tried on rav4 and corolla. Basically use it as phone charger and flash light. last year, I bought GOOLOO GT40005, after reading lots of reviews. It did not work on my ford Maverick, when battery gets low, the computer disconnects it from fuse box, the gooloo has under voltage protection, so it wont even output voltage with dead or missing battery. You have to press and hold a button on it to output the voltage which is now a 2 man operation. Since I was having on going issues with the ford, after reading more reviews, making sure it will work on dead or mossing battery, bought NEXPOW 4000A, it works on the ford hybrid but it did not have enough power to start camry V6. The ford hybrid doesn't use 12v to start the engine, just to power the computers. I used lead acid one for over 10 years, I bought from costco. I had to replaced the AGM battery in it once, 22 AH for $40, my son still uses that jumper, the inflator on it still works. I am planning to just buy the JNC one, next time its on sale. My advice, if you don't have any lithium ones, probably can get this ryobi. I suspect the power output will be limited by the amount of power the battery can put out, which is limited by the wiring inside the battery vs dedicated jump starter that is designed for the purpose. If you really want something that will work on all situations, get a well-made lead acid one, some have good on board chargers to manage the battery life, the batteries are easy to replace and not very expensive. the only down side is its bulky. Maybe future bigger lithium or LFP packs with enough power will work great. I don't even know where they come up with 4000A, the wires would melt, all BS numbers. i hope this helps someone, and not waste money like I did to learn the hard way.
