This little battery pack will pay for itself in convenience alone.
This was driven home for me when I was, well, driving home from very far out of state. I had 24 hours of driving that would stretch across several days, so it was the perfect time to discover that my car’s battery was on its last legs. The alternator was fine. The car ran once it was started, but the battery wouldn’t hold enough of a charge. Every third time I started the car, the battery was dead.
Without the battery pack, my options would’ve been limited. I could’ve taken my car to a shop to get the battery replaced, though that would’ve taken time that would’ve kept me out of state for much longer than I expected to be. Alternatively, I could’ve bought a battery and replaced it myself but I didn’t have my tools with me, so it would’ve been more expensive than it needed to be.
Plus, in order to do either of those things, I still would’ve needed to call AAA or another service, or wait for someone to come by and jump my car so I could take it anywhere. While it’s always nice to get assistance from a helpful stranger, it’s not exactly an emergency plan.Fortunately, I didn’t need to do any of that, because I had this battery pack in my car.
, this particular battery is rated for storage from –4 degrees Fahrenheit to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. I have no problem keeping it in the trunk of my car full-time, but the risk-benefit equation might change for you if you live in the middle of the desert or in a place with lots of blizzards. But—as if you needed another incentive—this particular pack comes with a built-in flashlight and can be used to charge your phone. So even if your car has a bigger problem than a dead battery, your phone won’t die too, so you can call for help.
