Is there a better jump starter for the price? After doing hours of research I found this to be the best bang for the buck (including longevity).
I hear varying stories about longevity... in hot climates, people have reported the battery swelling and popping the case open.. and this is within a 2 year period... Thats one of the reasons that I haven't purchased . it's hard to pay $150+ for a battery pack that might be a problem in 2 years.
@@mpcp27 Good point. I think part of the problem with the battery swelling has to do with storing in a hot car. The owners manual says to store it between -20 to 50 degrees Celsius (-4 to 122 Fahrenheit) and never to exceed 80 C (176 F). Of course in a hot climate a car in the sun can get well above that. My current solution is to bring it inside if I know it is going be in a very hot car for extended time, but of course that is super inconvenient too. I'm planning to make another video in a year or so reporting how it holds up long term.
@@many-points ... Well one guy used to keep it in his shop not in the car and the battery still swelled. Now the shop didn't have AC, but I imagine that it wouldn't be as hot as the car trunk on a hot day. The thing is you expect these battery pack jump starters to be able to be stored in the trunk and not have to be removed during a hot day. That's going to result in it being forgotten somewhere when you need it..
@@mpcp27 Agree 100%. A product that is meant to go with you in the car should be able to withstand car temps, and certainly warm shop temps. Time will tell with mine.
@@many-pointsHow is it now after 2 years?
Great review! Buying one for my boat :)
Thanks!
I like mine, especially since you can use it as a memory shaver. The only thing I don’t like is that the flashlight is on the wrong side.
Great video, Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
I bit of advice, if your battery keeps dieing, don't keep boostingnit, Just go out and buy another battery, eventually to many boosts to same dieing battery can damage your Alternator and or Starter.
It happen to me, I kept boosting my Battery and eventually my Starter went and so did my Super Expensive Alternator at $800 🤦🏼♂️ Infiniti truck.
I think it happens more when your battery is so dead it needs the full energy of the Novo battery pack and you have to depress the override button, that's some serious jolting powering going into your vehicle.
Just a heads up to all 🙋🏻♂️
Great advice
mine works great
Noco sells an auto charger for they’re charger , I was wondering can it over charge just by leaving it plugged in for weeks without the auto charger or if not weeks like 3 days ?
This GB70 jump starter should not be left on the battery but shoudl be taken off immediately after the jump start.
However the NOCO Genius 2, 5, 10 chargers are designed to be left charging the battery indefinitely and will not overcharge it. I have separate videos for the other chargers you can find on my channel.
The cable clips should be facing in the same direction as the light so you can see what your doing on a dark moonless night.
How has it held up? I got one to replace an old starter pac I’ve had forever. It’s just a smaller more convenient size
It's held up really well. I've jumpstarted about 15 vehicles successfully since I bought it. I've only had to charge it a two or so times the battery holds a lot of charge.
Hello, a 12-volt bulb with a power of 50 watts works for how many hours on this device?
Not sure, I've only used it to do jump starts. In my experience it will do 20+ jumps on a single charge. Manufacturer claims 40 jumps.
I would guess it would power the light bulb for several hours but honestly have no experience powering lights with this device.
My GB70 doesn't charge all the way neither! the green light blinks while charging with the other LED lights on like yours. It does seem to work ok though.
Yup mine did the same. Jump started just fine though.
Mam go. Moje Audi A8 D3 4.2 Tdi przy stanie baterii 3 V , odpala za pierwszym razem.
Mine is fully charged but did not work.
I do not know why.
I used it a few times before.
Oh bummer, hope it's still in warranty.
Great vid man!
I have the NOCO GB40. In a period of 3 years I had jumpstarted about 5-6 cars in a single charge and it's still not out of charge yet. It's been in my car for around that period of time and didn't face any problem with it although I live in Kuwait and the temprature there is around 45-55 celsius in mid summer. (No kidding)
I'm worried about the heat and the NOCO getting heated and probably blown in my car so I needed a case like this for protection.
The GBCO13 case specified for GB40 is out of stock.
Do you think this GBCO14 case would fit the GB40? As it's the only option available.
Thanks for the vid again 👍🏼
No problem! Yeah since making this video I have jumpstarted 4 cars and haven't hard to charge yet either.
So the GBCO14 case would "fit" the GB40 because GB40 is smaller dimensions than the GB70, but there would be room for it to wiggle around. If a tight fit isn't important than it could work, but the GBCO13 would be a better fit if you can wait.
@@many-points thanks for clarifying! 👍🏼
@@palusqui No problem!
Can you also charge a phone if needed?
Yup! It has USB ports so you can charge any device that charges via USB.
Do you think the GB70 is too powerful for a sedan?
Nope, I've used it to jump start multiple sedans and smaller cars without issues. In fact I've jump started my sisters car like 4 times, until I convinced her to finally buy a battery haha.
Plan DEM ic!
I have this GB70,,I got it because I wanted the 12v line out socket and it works fine,,, but the ripoff is the charging. You really need a mains charger which you have to buy separately. I cannot think of another product where you have to buy a charger separately .. apart from that issue ,its a good product..But the charging ussue leaves a bad taste after spending so much on the battery itself!!!
Agreed it's dumb, for that much money they should provide you a charger to go with it instead of having to try and find your own.
Where do you get the hard case?
I bought my case from Home Depot (Model NOCGBC014):
www.homedepot.com/p/NOCO-EVA-Protective-Case-for-Boost-HD-Jum-Starters-NOCGBC014/306809551
They are also for sale on amazon:

Where is the best place to buy the carrying case
I bought mine on Amazon:

I charge mine from the aux cigarette lighter port. It charges faster.
Nice, good tip
Looks like a 5w charger not 10w so only 1amp. Will take double charging time
Thanks for the comment. So technically this isn't a charger it's a jumpstarter so it's only intended to give enough boost to start the vehicle then you immediately take it back off. If you're looking for a charger I like the Genius 10: czcams.com/video/ACzRdSCU3EI/video.html
I just bought one it fails to get charged
I've received a bum unit before too. I would exchange it for another at the place you bought it.
If they gave you a hard time it should contact NOCO about the warranty is another option.
Im confused this is also a power bank for ur phone 💀💀 not only car
Im like i will buy that yes sur…. Like u know if you are stuck in the road car wont start and need help but also phone died and charge it too
Yup, you could jumpstart your car with it, then afterwards plug you phone into the USB port and charge it too. (Can't do both at the same time though). Charges anything that charges with a standard size USB.
U
that hard carring case looks like a bag
Yeah it's a little squishy for a hard case. However it's certainly harder than the bag the GB70 charger comes with.
That's not the hard carrying case.. That's just the complimentary bag that it comes with... you have to buy the hard case separately.. You should not buy this at all.. you might electrocute yourself..😑
