    It couldn't even jump start Prius 12 volt battery. Very disappointed.

    Just prepare for shelf life to be one year at the most assuming you keep this fully charged at all times. The Prius only needs 40-50 amps to jump start and hand over hv to begin ice start up so this pack is capable. Longevity is the issue with these products, i avoid these gimmicks products.

    Go with jncair, those bad boys don't play around. I got a unit and 2 years later, still jumps V6 car 10x without car's 12v connected.
