The starter itself has a 4,000-amp peak, a 26,800-milliampere-hour capacity, and is compatible with any 12-volt vehicle that runs on gasoline or 10L diesel. It's rated for more than 1,000 charge cycles, and can jump your car up to 60 times per charge. The jump box has three different recharging ports (60-watt two-way Type-C, 18-watt USB out, and 12-volt DC) and can also charge your various electronic devices as needed.
In addition to the jump start, this all-in-one beast is equipped with an 800-lumen LED flashlight, a 150-pound-per-square-inch air compressor, and an LCD display gauge. Nexpow says it'll inflate your vehicle's tires from 0 to 36 PSI in just five minutes. The starter is equipped with 10 different safety features, too, to prevent short circuits or overcharging. Included with the starter are a number of handy extras, including USB-C cables, a cigarette-lighter converter, and so on.
"Truly a terrific item to have in your car, even if you have a service like AAA," wrote one reviewer. "This is a safety device that should be in everyone's car."
"It's a very nice jump starter," another shopper said. "It charges quickly even when using a charging block with a lower wattage, and it's so lightweight and easy to use. It also comes with a carry case to keep everything together."
If you're hitting the road this summer, save $100 on the feature-rich Nexpow AP1 Jump Starter at Walmart and leave your travel anxieties at home.
