    HF Power Pack - anyone have one?

    Do any of you own one of these? For $40 it seems like it might be worth a try - especially for family members who have antique cars. I realize this isn't going to be Snap-On quality...but for occasional use do you think it would be ok?

    Id look at those small units that are small enough to fit in a glove box. Not much more money and way smaller and just as powerful.

    If just looking for the jump starting you can get a small lithium ion pack these days that can jump start a car 4 times.

    I got this one at Costco for like $40-50. Comes with jumper leads, is a flashlight and has 2 USB ports.

    I had a pretty good one that dies in me last spring (stopped taking a charge). Was headed out to a race, so ran to HF and picked one up similar to that one. It's not near as good as my old one. We generally use them to charge phones and stuff at the track. I'm in the market for a new one for sure.

    I bet you that set of Legos was more than the power supply.

    Get yourself one of these... http://www.bizarkdeal.com/MAXMADE-11...mpaign=product I have one and it's freaking amazing. It jump started the 10.5:1 compression 460 in my blue truck with a completely dead battery. After using it a lot over the last year I can say it's well worth the money.
