GETTING TO KNOW WEEGO 44S
CHARGE UP YOUR WEEGO 44s
When you unpack your new Weego 44s for the first time, charge it up to 100%
using the Micro USB Charging Cord provided. Make sure you use a USB enabled
wall adapter (like the one that comes with your smartphone or tablet) with an
output of 2.1A to charge as quickly as possible. (Output ratings are always
located on the USB adapter).
Weego 44s will last up to a year without recharging, but to keep it topped
off, recharge it every 6 months or so. Weego 44s will allow you to charge &
discharge your unit up to 1000 times, which will give you a good 3-5 years of
active use.
It takes 2.5 hrs. to fully charge using a 2.1A USB adapter. The indicator lights will flash one by one while the unit is charging. A solid light indicates a completed level of charge.
JUMP STARTING
BEFORE YOU JUMP
Read all instructions and safety information prior to using this product.
Improper use of this product will void your warranty and may result in product
damage, excess heat, toxic fumes, fire, and other unsafe conditions for which
Weego is not responsible.
Read the vehicle owner’s manual first: it may have specific cautions and
instructions about jumping your engine.
This product is for use on 12V Lead-Acid batteries only! DO NOT use
this product on any other voltage battery, such as 6V, 24V, etc. DO NOT
use this product on lithium-ion batteries.
Never jump or operate any engine in an enclosed area.
Put your vehicle in PARK and engage the emergency brake (boats and
Powersports vehicles should be put in NEUTRAL ).
TURN OFF ALL ELECTRONICS! – air conditioner, radio, lights, etc.
Remove any devices attached to your Weego 44s.
Never leave your Weego 44s connected to your engine’s battery unless actively
jumping.
Always disconnect the Smarty Clamps® from your Weego 44s when not in use.

JUMP STARTING YOUR ENGINE
- Ensure your engine is completely OFF.
- Securely connect the Smarty Clamps® to your Weego 44s.
- Place your Weego 44s in a secure location.
- Attach the BLACK clamp to your battery’s negative (-) terminal, then the RED clamp to your battery’s positive (+) terminal. Adjust your Smarty Clamps® to achieve MAXIMUM contact with the terminals. Poor connections will prevent you from starting your engine! Clear off any dirt or buildup with a wire brush or a dry towel before connecting your clamps.
- Check your Smarty Clamps®’ lights. When you have a GREEN READY light, start your engine. If the engine doesn’t start, check your Smarty Clamps® lights and wait a minute before trying again.
- After a successful start, disconnect the Smarty Clamps® from your Weego 44s.
- Detach the Smarty Clamps® from the battery.
- You’re now good to go – be sure to run your engine for at least 15 minutes before shutting it off again so it has time to recharge your battery.
If you are having issues getting your engine started, see Troubleshooting for further details and assistance.
WARNING!
Exposed Metal Jaws May Be HOT After Use!
UNDERSTANDING YOUR Smarty Clamps®
Your Smarty Clamps® has a “smart” box that will help guide you through a jump with both sight and sound. It will let you know when it is safe to jump or if there is an error.
No Light
Either you have a poor connection, or your battery is so dead (nearly 0 volts)
that your Weego clamps cannot register a connection.

My unit won’t power on/charge/charge past a few lights
If your unit won’t power on, won’t take a charge, OR won’t charge past a few
lights then it’s been overcharged. This can happen if the engine pulled the
Weego battery past a certain limit during a jump start. It can also happen if
the Weego is not stored with a full charge, or is not recharged every 3-6
months during storage.
Please reach out to [email protected] to let them know about this issue –we’ll receive and test the over-discharged Weego, then determine if we can repair it or if it needs to be fully replaced.
The Weego won’t jump-start my vehicle
A few things can attribute to a failed jump start, which we listed below.
- Poor connection between the Weego clamps and vehicle battery: the better the connection, the more likely you are to have a successful jump
- Dirty battery terminals: build-up prevents all the available power from reaching your battery
- Vehicle-specific compatibility issues: occasionally we come across a vehicle that has unique power demands that a smaller model cannot fulfill, even though it’s within our recommended engine range. In addition, vehicles with heavier electronics can sometimes create issues when jumping with a Weego; we mostly see this in push-to-start vehicles.
- Cold temperatures: Freezing temperatures create a lot of resistance in an engine which means it can require up to 3.5X the usual amount of power to get started; for example, an engine that usually needs 200A could need up to 700A in the extreme cold. In addition, if your Weego was stored in the cold temps it will make it harder for the Weego to deliver its full power.
- Low-Charged Weego: it’s always best to work with full power on your Weego if you can. Our jump starters perform better at 100% charge than they do at 20% charge, especially when jumping larger engines.
