If there’s a worse feeling than trying to start your car and realizing the battery is shot, we don’t want to know about it. A fully charged, fully capable jump starter is the best way to deal with that inevitable situation that doesn’t involve relying on access to jumper cables and a stranger’s engine. And right now Amazon has a great jump starter on sale with a big discount.
The Hulkman Alpha 1000A Jump Starter is on sale for $60 at Amazon, 52% off its $125 list price. A slightly beefier 1,250A version is also on sale for $90, a 40% discount from the $150 it’ll normally run you.
52% OffThis jump starter couldn’t be simpler: a small (roughly 8 by 4 by 2 inches), lightweight (1.46 pounds), and rugged (IP65-rated housing and shockproof rubber shell) red and black rectangular unit with cables that plug into the right side. On the left side there’s a USB-C input that can recharge the battery in just 45 minutes. The 100A peak current powers 6.5-liter gas or 3.0-liter diesel engines, and it can deliver up to 25 starts between charges. This device works at any temperature between -4 and 113 degrees Fahrenheit and also has an onboard 200-lumen LED flashlight that’s a godsend if your battery dies at night. Operation comes down to two buttons and monitoring the bright, clear LCD screen that displays the remaining battery and status.
One shopper called this jump starter a “fabulous tool” that’s “portable, fast, and easy to use.” Another wrote that it’s “easy to use and foolproof” and “simple, reliable, and gets you going fast.”
“It holds a charge and performs exceptionally well,” another customer wrote. Even after sitting through an Atlanta summer and winter, it “jumpstarted a Suburban from a dead state,” using just 11% of its battery in the process. There’s not much more you can ask for from a jump starter.
The incredible Hulkman Alpha 1000A Jump Starter is the kind of thing every driver should keep stashed in their car, a durable and reliable tool that’s easy to use even in a stressful situation like dealing with a dead car battery. Do yourself a favor and grab one while it’s just $60, a fraction of the headache it can save you in the future.
