Common questions about Baintech Jump Starter 12V 1200A with Air Compressor
Will it start a big diesel?
It is rated for 12V petrol and diesel engines at 500A starting current with a 1,200A peak, so yes for the usual four cylinder and six cylinder utes and wagons. Give it a minute connected before you crank, turn off the lights and radio, and do not hold the key on.
Can the compressor replace a proper 4WD compressor?
No. The 160PSI pump is for topping up a soft tyre, a mower wheel or a bike, and getting you to somewhere better. Airing four all terrains back up from beach pressures would take a long time and flatten the 16,000mAh pack you may need for a jump start.
How often should I charge it if it just lives in the car?
Top it up every few months whether you have used it or not — a lithium pack that sits at half charge for a year is the one that lets you down. It takes about 4 hours to fill. Also mind the heat: it is rated to 60°C and a car parked in the summer sun can get there.
