It actually works !!!
I'd always been very sceptical about these portable jump starters, wondering how could such a small battery actually start a car. But after an incident on a beach - when my car battery went flat, and there was no one else around with jump leads or to help me push the car, which meant the incoming tide left my wheels stuck firmly in the sand, resulting in me having to get a recovery truck to tow me out at a cost of £80 - I decided to invest in a portable jump starter. I saw an "AA" brand starter in my local petrol station costing £49.99, but when I went back a few days later to buy one, they were sold out. So I did some research online and found that the Arteck had received many good reviews. I also watched a YouTube video of a guy testing one by leaving his car lights on all night and starting his car in the morning with the Arteck. So I was happy to find this one on eBay for only £36 (£14 cheaper than the AA starter). As soon as it arrived, I tried the same test as the guy in the YouTube video (ensuring my friend's car and a set of jump leads were nearby, just in case it didn’t work). I left my car lights on and let the battery go completely flat. I connected the Arteck to my car battery (which was very easy to do) and "Hey Presto" - the car started with one turn of the key. After three weeks, the Arteck still has a full charge (indicated by 4 blue lights) Hopefully I won't be in any more "emergency" situations with a flat battery, but I now feel safer knowing the Arteck is in my glovebox (the padded case doesn’t take up too much space at approx 20x13x7cm). I would recommend the Arteck to anyone for that same peace of mind - especially to a female driver (or even a male) who may feel wary about asking a stranger to help jump start their car. I would also highly recommend it to stupid people like me who let their car batteries go flat on beaches.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Brill ! Great ! FAB !
On receipt I charged the unit via my phone charger - great ! You can charge via your phone charger or the 12v socket in your car. Brill ! It has twinkly lights but I don't know what they are for. Bad ! I am a bloke so never read instructions, so I have no idea if this is ready or not. Dim ! However, I am very sure it is ready and waiting, in a spIffing case in my boot ready for action. FAB !Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
