KEY POINTS
100W AC socket: VTOMAN portable jump starter is equipped with AC output
port with a power of 100W. The laptop runs out of battery while you are
working outside? Need a fan outdoors in the heat? A portable 110V AC output
port can meet a variety of your daily demand, it can be used to charge and
power a wide range of devices, including laptops, cameras, drones, and other
small appliances. This is an extraordinary portable jump starter with star
performance that caters to emergency needs during travelling, outdoor work or
power cuts.
Upgraded jump starter: With a peak current of 3500A,the robust car battery
jump box can quickly jump start your vehicle within 1-3 seconds – up to 50
jump starts on a single fully charge. Highly suitable for trucks, motor
vehicles, snow mobiles, ATVs, UTVs, hay mowers and yachts. With its company,
you no longer need to worry about dead batteries or having to ask for the help
of passers-by and setting up jumper cables between cars just to start your
vehicle at midnight or during road trips.
20000mAh Battery Backup: The VTOMAN lithium battery jump starter provides
enough juice to power for 12″ MacBook to work for 8 hours, an iPad Mini for 20
hours, an iPhone X for 6 times. It boasts double-USB outputs with a maximum
power of 18W, Type-C output (5V/2A,9V/3A),DC output (15V/10A) and convenient
LED floodlight so that it can serve as a backup source of power supply during
power cuts to revive your electronic gadgets. It would be your best partner
during not only trips, but also winter storms and hurricane seasons.
Discharge rate: V12 typically discharges at a rate of 2-3% per month after it
is turned off for storage. With a super-long standby duration of 24 months, it
won’t incur excessive power losses while it is shelved. In other words, if you
restart it 6 months later at a battery life of 100%, you would have 82-88% of
the battery available for use (3 bars), enough for powering your car in most
cases. However, for safety purposes, we suggest that you charge it to 100%
every three months in order to provide the maximum power in case you need.
Compact & Lightweight:Designed with slim size (8.82 3.971.57 inches) and
lightweight (1.78 lbs), easy to put it in your backpack or car and take it
with you wherever you need power. Cold Weather Storage: The V12 can safely
jump start the vehicle from -4°F(-20 ℃ ) to +131°F(55 ℃ ) .Note that while it
is safe to jump start the device in these temperatures, room temperature(72°F)
is considered optimal operating range.If at all possible, we recommend
bringing the V12 to room temperature before using for maximum effectiveness.
If this is not possible, you may find that the first attempt at jump starting
will produce a weak output,but this is nomal. One advantage of lithium
batteries is that they warm up fast from use. After each attempt wait at least
30 seconds to allow the battery to warm up sufficiently before attempting next
boost, and do not crank for more than 5 seconds per time.
Advanced Protection System: Heavy-Duty jump clamp is constructed with
intelligent circuit protection functions which has 10 protections, making the
car battery jump starter safe for anyone to initiate the dead battery without
producing sparks or damaging the car’s electrical system. It doesn’t get warm
or pose any kind of safety risk.
