I guess even if it's close to the same price it's not always convenient to carry a second battery!
I do a lot of extreme desert driving with a wide variety of vehicles in the winter. In the summer I use the boat quite a lot so this is very handy for those types of applications. With the cell phones, cameras, and other electronics it makes it very easy to recharge them if needed. They range from $55.00 to around $180.00. But with 400 cranking amps with a peak of 600 cranking amps it is a stout little unit. it is supposed to hold a charge for up to 6 mos. and easily recharged. I dont know as it is brand new to me... Time will tell I suppose. I purchased 2 of the jumper packs from Costco over the past year. The first one just died and the replacement for it has died as well. $75.00 each and they lasted 1 year combined? They could never crank my diesel over.
