    Just got my hulkman 8.5 and I was able to use the 12V adapter to run an air mattress pump for about 18 minutes before I shut it off. The Hulkman front got too hot to handle and it went from 100% to 46% in that time. Clearly not the best use case for this device but it is nice to see that they removed the 10 minute limitation.

  • @Postal268
    @Postal268 Před rokem +1

    Thanks for this video and in depth explanation, I have a cheap 12 pound AGM battery meant for being used as a backup battery installed in my car as my main battery cause it was cheaper and lighter but it doesn't hold as much charge so in case I needed it I also had a "Halo" brand jump pack, I got for almost free, mounted in my car just hardwired into the car battery but I gave it away to someone who needed one and was in the market for a new one and was mega confused why all of them had "Smart plugs" and was worried my hardwire setup may be dangerous with these. I guess the safety measures were built in on the Halo or just didn't have any but I didn't want to drop $100 on that brand since it didn't have crazy good battery life for charging my phone and things.

    Thanks for this review. I suspected the Fanttik T8 looked oddly similar to the Hulkman. Albeit changing some features and packaging. I received my Alpha 8.5S from the Kickstarter. Is that the best version to buy? Amazon has both on there. I almost bought a Fanttik just because it goes on sale more often and included a case and extra USB C cables and chargers.... I do own the Fanttik X8 air compressor, your thoughts on that? Is it also another clone of another product? Thanks!

    I own a Gooloo gp2000, the cigarette adapter which I am connecting to the jump starter by DC port is constantly giving 15V 10A. I measured, that under load it is dropping to 12V and it does not disable after 30 seconds as you mentioned in the video.
    Do you think it would be safe to use this DC output from the jump starter as a backup energy for all the car components for the time while I want to unplug the car battery to properly charge it with 16V?

    i have a few like that one in the backright 60$, was 80$ canadian for 1500amp and i think 110$ canadian for 2500amp unit, although the 2500 isnt that much better its pretty much comparable to the smaller unit.. all the jumper packs are that annoying style that wont start anything if it doesnt have a battery/charge, and if you fail to start the rig on the first attempt it starts squawking you have to get out of the vehicle to remove one battery clamp and remove the plug from the pack before itll shutoff and reset.. its extremely annoying, would think a button press or just removing the battery clamp and reconnecting it would be sufficient but nope if that relay box sees power from the jumper or the car battery it wont shut off and will stay in karen mode
    im pretty tempted to make atleast one of the 3 i have into a go all the time model, have you had issues when starting diesels that need to crank alot with overheating the packs or having the lithium cells explode anything like that? just worried ill send it a little too hard but then again if its under the hood there isnt much risk to me or the vehicle even if it did have a bad day

    Nice video review. I had been looking at the jump packs as well. I had noticed the similarity between the Hulkman 85(no preheat) and the Fanttik T8 - the one you called a Chinese clone and removed. It's made by Audew as well.. Most the chargers seem to be made in China and based on the similarity of the plugs/clamps are clones of one another to some degree...Audew, iamazing,gooloo etc. Lots of jumper pack brand names. I think I saw somewhere that Hulkman was designed in the US but made in China .. I was initially looking at the Hulkman but was wary of failure reports after checking Amazon reviews...I got turned off when a CZcams reviewer reported that his failed after a couple of months and he got no reply from Hulkman support.

    • @redneckcomputergeek
      @redneckcomputergeek  Před 2 lety +4

      Yes Hulkman and I have had a few run arounds. I was in their Beta test group and tested units 4 months before it ever hit market. The first unit released had a known flaw that showed up after a month of solid use. The 2.0 version fixed the problem but was not in time to save them from getting nailed in the reviews. Fanttik is a daughter brand to Tacklife A company majorly based on cloning other tools. The T8 is a clone of the first gen Hulkman and fails after a month of use just like the first gen did. Broken open they are identical but components are lacking branding.

    The newest noco gx155 has been nothing but garbage in my experience. At least 3 other techs at our Mack/Volvo/Hino/Cummins dealership have them and more than a handful of tines all they do is get hot and immediately die. My gooloo gt4000 (w/ preheater, not the "S") has never let me down. It charges 5hrs faster than the noco, is 150-200$ LESS than the noco and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The other thing I noticed was that one of our techs (our uptime bay diag guy of all people) always had his on top of one of his boxes plugged in, then one day it wasn't there. I asked him and he Saud he had to warranty it. Apparently he had used it to jump a Volvo vnr and it did work! BUT it killed the battery and from then on required being plugged in or it would die basically overnight. Then hecwent to use it one day and plugged up, nothing. So there's that as well. I had an old gb40 years ago and loved it but from what I've seen. The newest 4250a models are poorly made INTERNALLY, and most of the guys spent over 400$ and "regret it". Glad I didn't jump on THAT bandwagon! Great video as always. Happy New Year bud

    @johndooley8837 Před rokem

    Great video thanks for doing it. Regarding the units that do not supply power when they are under load. I suspect the reason for that is to protect the isolation relay in the unit or on the cord. Notice the large spark you get when you attach the clamp to the starting motor. That large spark will damage the isolation relay contacts and probably cause them to weld together. Those relays are basically too small for the amount of current they carry. Industrial relays that carry that much current are much much larger. About the preheat feature in cold weather, a workaround for that may be to make several cranking attempts, basically just keep trying and see if you can get it to work.The idea being that the load on the batteries will generate internal heat which will then allow them to produce more current. Regarding the old school booster units that contain lead acid batteries, the problem with those is that if you carry them around in your car they will eventually go dead because of the internal resistance of the lead acid battery.When you need them they probably will not work and the battery will be ruined because it has been dead for so long.About the starter motor, some grease on the bushings could help a lot, if not the bushings are pretty cheap. All the best to you.
