I purchased this item because of the product name Black & Decker which has a reputation to make quality tools that perform well. After fully charging the unit I attempted to start my Craftsman garden tractor whose battery was weak. Well to my dissatisfaction after connecting the B&D Jump Pack to the battery had little or no effect on the performance of the cranking of the engine which I couldn’t get started. Feeling that there may be a problem with the garden tractor I attempted to jump start my Sonoma P/U with a 6 cyl engine which was totally dead and after connecting the B&D battery pack again it had no effect whatsoever and wouldn’t even crank the engine. I had purchased this unit as a replacement for my Husky Jump Pack which I had received about 3 years ago as a gift. The Husky outperformed this unit by leaps and bounds it would crank the P/U with a dead battery and had no problems starting my garden tractor. This B&D unit is a waste of money and I wouldn’t recommend buying one if you are looking for a reliable jump pack for emergencies. Steer clear of this one. Stick with the Husky brand I give it a F-
