  • Jump starting the Subaru WRX STI and testing out the Genius Boost Sport GB20 from Halfords at the same time.. after a long winter it's time to bring the scoob out of hibernation. Fair to say this little box is impressive!
    New videos weekly. Much love!

    As a woman living in the cold, this thing has saved me plenty.

    That's actually mad how it fired straight up from absolutely nothing on the battery! Definitely an essential. Also, more Scoob ASAP please! Good video lads

      Jay Did This yeah so crazy! Literally not a drop of power in it and first time started! Plenty of scoob this summer mate 🌀

      I bought one of these to jump start a scooter I had that had some electrical demons and it would jump start the battery 5 times from full charge no problem every time. Can't recommend it enough and it will work with anything up to a 2.0L engine (probably a bit more too but a 2.0L is what it's built up to).

      @@RODEBLOCTV 26 year old Toyota Starlight, only drive every 2-3 months, frickin battery is always low/flat. btw My father-in-law owns Ford 1930s trucks, tried to help someone stuck with a brand new 2022 truck, flat battery: they couldn't frickin find it! Called the dealer, it's behind inaccessible panels. Tow. for a flat battery. Nuts.

    If the led lights start running you do not have to press the red button, it’s an override button and leave it for 30s before starting, I have the same model and sometimes my car will not fire up if you try it straight away it just takes life out of the noco

    is there a video on the halfords trickle charger you use as i'm also in revelation, so you can charge the battery to full once jumpstarted & not have to drive for the alternator to top up for half hour, how does it work & how long do you have to leave the engine on?

    • @RODEBLOCTV
      @RODEBLOCTV  Před 3 lety

      We just use a standard trickle charger to keep the battery topped up. If the battery is flat, you can use this to jump it to get going but it does not charge the battery. Once it’s started, you’d then have to do the same as normal with a jump start and go on a drive to get the alternator to put some charge into the battery. This just eliminates the pushing the car down the road whilst freezing your b******s off 👍🏻

    I purchased one at half price on a clearance aisle. I'm concerned I may get less life out of it if it was in the store a long time. It is rated up to 4.0L engines. Have used it to start a 4.0L Nissan Xterra and 5.9L Dodge truck.

    You've done what I've seen many a review channel not; read the instructions and press the red button on a flat battery. lol

      Maybe 1 start but it actually charges in about three to 4 hours on a good samsung variable charger
