edit: adding other info for others: it recharges via USB-C which is nice. It takes a while to fully recharge. It can charge other devices via USB-A at max 2.4 Amps. 37 Wh for battery capacity (which isn't much when compared to a standard USB power bank, but nice in an emergency to plug your phone into)
edit 2: I said compared to a "standard USB power bank". That's misleading and poorly worded on my part. The physical size of this unit is about the same size as a 20,000+mAh power bank. However, it's much lighter. The listed capacity of this unit is 10,000mAh. (37Wh)

Do you leave it hidden in the car when in hot weather?

If I were to spend noco gb40 $ again I'd buy the gooloo 4000a that performed well on project farm.

As a comparison, this Avapow was recently on sale for $50:
This AstroAI model is 10,000 mAh = 37 Wh
10,000 mAh = (37 Wh * 1,000) / 3.7v
The Avapow you listed is 32,000 mAh = 118.4. Wh
32,000 mAh = (118.4 Wh * 1,000) / 3.7v
Assuming the listings values are actually correct from these manufactures, the Avapow does offer more peak amperage and more capacity, but even if it was for sale at the price you listed, that's over 75% more expensive. Also, you can't buy that device for the price you mentioned now.
If someone doesn't have a vehicle that needs the extra peak amperage to start it, the AstroAI is a fine device for the price.
For anyone else reading: You don't want to store any of these devices in very cold or very hot temps. It's a nice thing to have in your house, or to take with you. If the device works for your vehicle, it's nice being able to use it rather than ask someone to jump your car with cables.
That being said: Always carry jumper cables in your vehicle. If this, or any similar device, craps out (or if you didn't bring it with you) jumper cables are the way to go. Have a stranger give you a jump from their vehicle and you are back on the road.
