How to Jump-Start a Vehicle

Before purchasing one of the Solar BoosterPac jump start units, you should probably make sure you know the basics of jump-starting a vehicle with a portable power source unit.

  1. First, make sure the vehicle is parked(P) and completely turned off.
  2. Next, locate the battery or booster terminals.
  3. Then place your Solar BoosterPac unit in a secure spot. Luckily each unit comes with long, heavy-gauge cables and rotating clamp holsters, so this should be the easiest part!
  4. After that hook the red, positive clamp to the positive terminal of the dead battery.
  5. Then hook the black, negative clamp to an unpainted metal surface on your car, like the frame. Each of the BoosterPac units has industrial-grade Hot Jaw clamps with high tension springs, so you don’t have to worry about a clamp accidentally slipping off of a terminal.
  6. Finally, try starting your car.

Hopefully, as long as your battery isn’t damaged internally, your dead vehicle should come back to life! If all goes well you can then remove each clamp in the reverse order that you attached them. However, make sure that after jump-starting your vehicle, you let it run, or drive around for a period of time in order to recharge your battery!

Solar BoosterPac Jump Starter Series

It’s never a good day when you wind up stranded with a dead battery. Luckily the Solar BoosterPac line is here to provide you with a variety of options when it comes to mobile jump starters. Let’s take an in-depth look at what some of the products have to offer.

Entry-level Jump Starter

First, for those of us who drive the average commuter vehicle and only need 900 peak amps and 12-volts worth of power, we would recommend this economical, entry-level jump starter unit. This power source truly is small but mighty, as it has the ability to jump-start up to 5 vehicles on a single charge! And since they are compact, lightweight, and convenient most people keep these units in their vehicles, for peace of mind.

1500AMP Jump Stater

But if you drive a vehicle with a small diesel or larger gas engine, you’ll need something with a bit more juice. The 1500AMP Booster Pac (12-volt) jump starter has some serious starting power, and with its high-performance battery, it can jump-start anything, whether it’s automotive, agricultural, marine, or industrial. If that still isn’t enough power for you, Solar also has the 3,000 peak amp 12-volt unit for heavy-duty starting, making it ideal for fleets or industrial vehicles.

HD Jump Starter

If you own or operate a variety of vehicles, you may need to switch from 12 volts to 24 volts on the fly. As you may know, a vehicle with a 24-volt battery system will need 24-volts worth of power in order to jump-start it. If you try jump-starting a 24-volt vehicle with only 12-volts worth of power, it’s not going to work, and it could end up overloading your jump starter. Thankfully, the BoosterPac line has an HD jump starter unit here to save the day. With just the flip of a switch, going from 12 to 24-volts of power has never been easier. This unit can reach 3,200 peak amps when in 12-volt mode, or 1,600 peak amps when in 24-volt mode, so any vehicle you’re trying to jump-start will be a piece of cake. This unit also features an advanced warning system that alerts you to a variety of unsafe jumpstarting conditions, keeping you and your vehicle safe.

Jump-N-Carry Jump Starter

What if you get a low tire? Don’t worry! The Jump-N-Carry jump starter and air compressor have got you covered! It features the exclusive Clore PROFORMER battery technology, which is designed to deliver 1700 peak amps, numerous jumps per charge, and long service life. With that kind of power, almost any vehicle from a tiny smart car to a large truck should be good to go! Plus, with an integrated Air Delivery System, the JNC AIR has power and convenience in one neat packageAnd as an added bonus it also features a voltmeter to provide the charge status of the onboard battery.

Batteries

You can rest assured knowing that each unit in the Solar BoosterPac series has the ease and convenience of automatic charging, which eliminates the possibility of overcharging, and allows you to have these units ready in an instant. However, BoosterPac jump starters all feature high-performance, replaceable ES Series batteries specifically designed for jump-starting your vehicle, so I doubt running out of charge will be of any concern.


Even if you do find the charge depleted, recharging your BoosterPac jump starter is easy. Simply plug the charger into an AC outlet, plug the adapter into the back of the unit, and then wait for the green LED to light up, signaling that the charger is fully powered and ready for service. The impact-resistant case provides long-lasting protection even in the roughest of Canadian environments. Finally, each unit has a 12-volt car charger for charging on the go, LEDs that provide a quick and easy way to see how much battery you have left, and a 12-volt DC outlet to power accessories, so you can play candy crush while you wait!

So, if you want to ensure that your vehicle battery and tires won’t be an issue no matter the situation, the Solar BoosterPac units have got your back.
