CAT CJ3000 Professional Jump Starter 1000 Peak Amp Battery Booster, Built-In Power Switch, Battery Clamps, Yellow

Got it in two days in new condition. Charged it about 19 hours and then jump started my Honda CRV - 2011 which had a battery that could not even open the door locks, 80% dead I guess. Turning key did NOTHING. It was dead. After hooking up the CAT and turning the red button to the jump start position, I turned the key once and held it for about 3 or 4 cranks (2 seconds?) and it started right up solidly!! Just follow the directions exactly as the manual states. I'll have to see how well it holds the charge. I am recharging it for 24 hours since it was used to start a car. It's heavy duty and straight-forward. Does not charge the battery - just jump starts the car. Your alternator has to recharge the battery so leave your car on or drive for 15 to 20 minutes. The lights worked but have not tried the outlet which is like a cigarette lighter outlet. You need an extension cord type of electric cord to charge the unit and it is not included.

I ordered a CJ 3000 from you all back in February if I'm not mistaken it would never ever take a charge I read the reviews it's nothing good said about that battery charger like I said I charged it and I charged it it would never take a charge I try to use it one time but did it not do anything by cranking up a vehicle that one of my friends was stuck in the parking lot I got a warranty on it with the one you wanted that you all give me I got an extended warranty on it for 3 years package that I bought I wished I would already reviews before I bought this product but to me it's not worth it I seen somewhere on the reviews said the lady that I don't know maybe she's a representative for cat CJ 3000 she said it probably was sitting in the warehouse too long and the battery went dead and it would not take a charge but like I say it do not take a charge I had to go out and buy a cord for it cuz someone please respond back to my email so we can take care of this situation I got another product now that I bought a blunt digital display Quick Charge portable power pack I got it charging now but the flashlight do not come on WOW I must be having some kind of look buying products offline and I order everything from Amazon I know I do not need to be completely charged for the flashlight to come on you can send an email back to me thank you from Travis Carson

Strong durable powerful. This will start anything. Heavy gauge cables and a durable serviceable Jump Box. Was an amazing go-to for over a year. Until... It got wet. Not waterproof at all. Left in the back of my truck during rainy day while I went out to service vehicles in need. Couldn't properly charge it after that. Sometimes later it was stolen anyway. I recommend this jump box. It doesn't have all that safety garb the other ones have. I don’t know why it has a 4 Star rating. I saw reviews about it not holding a charge. That’s weird because mine held a charge for months. I used it allot. It took a long time to kill it. So you must have gotten one with a defective battery. This Jump Box was very reliable. But as I said before, not waterproof! I’ll probably seal up the next one I get.

Nice unit, though not quite as HD as expected from the CAT name, which is licensed only - CAT does not make this unit. The good - cables are 4ga, clamps have braided wire connecting both sides for added current handling, fairly light for the capacity (though it's still pretty heavy), easy to use. The not-so-good - no charging cable included (need to buy JNC350 Charging Cord or similar) or you can't use it out of the box. Battery is lighter duty than what is included in the JNC 660/770 products which to be fair are much heavier and do cost more. Overall a good value compared to most everything else of this capacity level.

It hard to recommend this battery, this thing can in theory jump start a diesel, and I bought it for use in a marine environment. I used that battery on and off the boat, and jump started my cars and strangers sometimes with no major hiccups. I bought that battery a few years ago. So I bought a new one for my mother on Xmas, we charged it up and put it in the car. It helped me with piece of mind knowing my mom could jump start her car. Fast forward to two weeks ago, I get a call from her stating that even when jump starting the car ( a Honda element, which is small 4 cylinder), she cannot get it to turn over. I blamed it on user error, and drove out to her location. The battery display showed full and it seemed like the battery had just enough power to turn on the dash but no more to actually turn over the car. We were near a friends home, so we quickly walked over and charged it again just in case. We tested and it didn't work. I pulled the one Ive been using for years now out of the truck of my car and was able to turn over her car without much trouble. What sucks most about this is two things, #1 I cannot recommend this pack to anyone anymore, and #2 I cannot return the busted one due to it being outside the amazon return window. So, as it stands its 50/50 on if you will get a solid battery bank to trust through the years or if it will leave you hanging.

Purchased on in 2020 that was great for years. We needed another one, we tried 2 from amazon that didn't work, Amazon doesn't do refund on this product so good luck. I was able to get a replacement from the manufacturer, Baccus Global, it is also completely non functioning, so 3 that never accepted a charge from brand new. They changed something in the production over the years, upped the price and it is now a horrible product.

This jump box is amazing. Have had mine for 3 years. As long as you charge it after use and once in a while when not using it... it will boost your vehicle... even multiple vehicles on one charge. I’ve boosted one of my vehicles multiple times with this box. I use the vehicle less than my other vehicle and so occasionally on the coldest days or after long periods of no use I need to boost the battery. It always comes back to life. Even when the battery seems completely dead... wait a few minutes with the jump box on and connected and it will bring the battery back. The CAT CJ3000 is well built/ durable and appears to be insulated from the cold with the rubber/ plastic material it’s made of. Remember like any battery don’t leave it in the cold for long periods if you don’t have to... but I have sometimes and it still works. It’s heavy... but it works really well.

Very poor quality. Stop charging within 1 week

This product is so reliable and easy to use. This will boost anything or buy a inverter and use it for hours of light or charging cell phones 15 times or more. I liked it so much I bought 2 more.

The unit is heavy but great for keeping in your truck. The batteries have much longer life expectancy than the lithium ion batteries in the "glove compartment" variety of booster. HOWEVER, as so many other people who have bought this unit have discovered, the charger in the unit is trash. Mine died after the 1 year warrantee so can't get help from manufacturer. They won't even tell you where to purchase replacement parts. CAT should reconsider having their name on products manufactured with unreliable low end components.
