Got a stranger out of a bind.
Bought this in preparation for a rainy day. Heading back from Columbus to Cincinnati I pull off the highway to get a drink from a gas station and someone has their hood up and I hear the guy helping them say, "Man, I just lent my cables out to a friend." I come over with the NOBO in hand and say, "I can help." The guy that's already trying to help jumps in his car to offer the jump and I just smile and say, "No bud, this won't need that." The people were so impressed that the first this they said was I need to buy one of those and I said, "Maybe, but you def need a new battery or alternator."
Update: 12/10/2016* Used it a couple more times and I haven't even recharged it yet from the original charge.
Update: 03/23/2017 I bought a Land Cruiser for winter time driving and maybe some off-road adventure so I bought a second one of these bad boys for that vehicle. It isn't a problem at all, however I would like them to start offering a hard case for this for future customers. I am probably going to buy one for this. Still works great.
