Default noco genius boost gb40 lithium jumpstarters

Does anyone here have experience with the noco genius gb40 or 50 lithium jumpstarters?
Or any cheaper affordable power station which includes tire inflator. Most are lead acid except the schumacher 1500 peak amp lithium jumpstarter but i have yet to use it from walmart for 98$

The lead acid agm battery jumpstarters portable power stations all stay they need to be charged monthly and 1400 peak amps they only put out a constant 700 amps or instant 700amps when connected. I tried the 800 peak amp tire inflator stanley/ everstart maxx and it would barely turn over a 2.3l engine not enough to crank it and start. Im guessing maybe 400 instant amps.
Stanley and dewalt advertise their 1400 peak amps as 700 instant or constant amps when connected to the battery but range 150$-160$ the thing i dislike about them is their lead acid batteries which require charging more often vs lithium jumpstarters that advertise 20-35 jumpstarters.

The 1400amp everstart max lithium jumpstarter tire inflator for 84$ is out of stock at walmart but their is a schumacher 1500amp lithium battery jumpstarter advertises up to 35 jumpstarts a single charge.

Schumacher Electric 1500A 12V Lithium Jump Starter - Walmart.com It doesnt say the instant amps which is what is really used as i tried the 800 peak amp one and had half that maybe 400 amps on a dead battery 2.3l 4 cylinder. I was able to return it to walmart as it didnt work as advertised jumpstarts v6 vehicles without use of another vehicle.
Im almost willing to test the schumacher on a dead battery 2.3L saab but dont want to be wasting my money.

Ive read good things about the lithium noco boost jumpstarters theres also alot of similar products to that jumpstarter. Any experience with them? That specific model has an override button incase battery is less then 2 volts itll supply power jumpstarting it. Im just not sure what their constant or instant amps is as its peak 1000 amp jumpstarter from my experience the peak amps doesnt mean anything the constant or instant amps is what starts the vehicle.

Noco told me just hook the jumpstarter up and manual override battery less then 2 volts the jumpstarter would start any vehicle up to engine size as advertised.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/seort/690682440

NOCO Boost XL GB50 1500A 12V UltraSafe Lithium Jump Starter - Walmart.com

EverStart Maxx MJ1200E 1400 Peak Amp Portable Lithium Jump Starter with Air Compressor and USB Power Bank - Walmart.com

DEWALT DXAEJ14 Digital Portable Power Station Jump Starter, 1400 Peak/700 Instant Amps, 120 PSI Air Compressor, 3.1A USB Ports, Battery Clamps - Walmart.com

You can see the dewalt openly advertises its instant amps 700 which im pretty sure after testing the 800 peak amp jumpstarter only had half that maybe 400 amps.

Theres this 1000 peak amp portable power station from walmart for 80$ but i read the pdf said 1000peakamps and 350amps constant or instant plus its a lead acid agm battery needs recharge everytime. https://www.walmart.com/ip/seort/477068813

Just not sure which one is the best i like the power stations but if anyone knows of a good affordable lithium jumpstarter noco boost or another brand thats cheaper with warranty and the manual override for less then 2 volt or dead batteries thatd be great. I dont mind using the 30$ hypertough dc outlet tire inflator with 2 year warranty from walmart vs a whole portable power station to carry around or emergency fix a flat kit same thing small inflator with 9$ green slime in the trunk of corvette.

The everstart maxx lithium 1400 peak amp im assuming 700 instant amps with tire inflator that is real handy isnt in stock at walmart been waiting to try one as last time i had to return the 800 peak amp lead acid portable power station the first week wouldnt jumpstart a 2.3L 4 cylinder as advertised.

This maybe of interest and have some useful information, Project Farm tested several lithium jump starters:
. He tested for spec, jumping gas car and diesel tractor. The Gooloo 4000 seemed to do the best overall in his testing especially in cold conditions.


He also tested and smoked several lead battery jump starters in this video
. The Cost way could actually crank a v6 when the car batter was down to 2 volts unlike the rest of them. The Stanley is junk and dies during the test 😆 🤣 😂

No experience with the newer lithium tech but my Stanley lead acid Jump Starter is definitely not up to the task of Jump starting a v8 with dead or weak battery. It's OK for inflating tires. Wouldn't buy it again.

I own several of the NOCO GBX45's which is rated for 1200cca... they are incredible, I bought one a couple years ago on a whim on sale for Black Friday, I work at a heavy equipment dealer and one day a couple months after I had purchased the booster we had an F550 Diesel service truck that needed to be jumped off, wouldn't turn over at all just click the relay, I hooked up the NOCO fully expecting it not to work figured I'd have to go get our big jumper box, thing fired right up, it blew my mind. The next black friday event they put them on sale again, I bought one for every vehicle I own plus one for my Boss as a gift....HIGHLY recommend

So which ones you suggesting the stanley or everstart max peak 800 amp tire infaltor jumpstarter would only barely crank over not start a 2.3 cylinder saab. I read they say 800 peak amps 400 instant/constant amps. I see the dewalt or stanley 150$ lead acid jumpstarter tire inflators say 1400 peak amps 700 constant or instant amps. Im guessing they only put out the instant amps when connected as it seemed my 800 peak amp was only pushing 400 constant amps as home depots advertisements.

What noco boost suggesting they have the manual override button for batteries under 2 volts. I like the fact that they are lithium and 20 jumpstarts on one charge but have no experience with them.
Theres the noco gb 40 50 the gb50 i think is probably best or larger for max amps. Does anyone have a gb 40 or 50 to try on a dead battery pr try starting a v8 vehicle without a battery just the jumpstarter connected?
Theres other lithium jumpstarts similar that may be cheaper as noco boost is way expensive has anyone tried an alternative or generic version of the noco boost jumpstarters and do they include the under 2 volt manual override button?

I just told you everything you needed to know as far as the Jumpstart portion goes, the Noco GBX45 will be on sale in a month for black Friday..... two things you never cheap out on are jump start equipment and winches... my 2 cents

another nod for the Noco, i carry a GBX55 in work car. Picked it up a few months ago, I havent needed it but its jumped off half a dozen cars or so. I charge it up after each use but it may only drop a "bar" after jumping. charges fast with high watt usb C.
also keeping an eye out for them to go on sale, will pick up another 55 or maybe 75 if they drop price nicely

What amp is that the 1000,1500amp, 2000amp they have manual override for less then 2 volts or no battery and supply eneough to start a v8 gas engine?

I was browsing top down 2000amp and 3000amp similar to noco has a boost button for less then 2 volts or NO BATTERY will start a vehicle. They suggested the 3000amp but is up there in price 104$-150$ 2 year warranty.

Do you know which noco boost will start up to v8 346 ls1 engine with a completetly dead battery?

May i ask if one of you have the Gb 40 50? Or whichever if you can try to start the car with the jumpstarter alone with the manual override button to see if it will work just as expected or advertised or is no one willing to attempt this experiment it would help me a alot with my jumpstarter curiousity related the lithiun noco or topdown jumpsurge 2000-3000amp.

This top don with 2 year warranty 1200amp 2000amp 3000amp will start a car with less then 2 volts or NO BATTERY is anyone willing to attempt this experiment of starting their ls1 vehicle with a battery removed so i know for sure it works?

See these ad photos of the top down the 1200amp is 70$ the 2000amp is 104$ the out of stock 3000amp which they suggested for me they have 2 year warranty and can be returned in 30 days? No ones tried these top don only noco boost?

WOULD ANYONE BE WILLING TO ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE BATTERY AND SEE IF THE JUMPSTARTER NOCO BOOST GB 40 50 or whichever you have will start the ls1 v8 with battery removed as advertised in this other ad?

yes when you read home depots description of the stanley or dewalt 1400 amp lead acid jumpstarter tire infaltors for 150$ lead acid battery only airs up 4 tires they say 1400 peak amps but only 700 constant/instant amps.

My everstart maxx 800 peak amp lead acid jumpstarter up to v8 vehicles would barely crank over my brother 2006 saab 9-5 2.3 cylinder. Its as if it only put out 400 instant or constant amps and not the advertised 800 peak amps. Walmart let me return it for a full refund as it didnt work as advertised.

Im looking into the topdown or noco boost lithium jumpstarters the topdown advertised it will start a vehicle WITHOUT A BATTERY so im highly interested its around the same price as a noco boost but a little cheaper.

3000A 12V Gas/Diesel UltraSafe Lithium Jump Starter Portable Battery Booster US | eBay

This above one and the noco boost im looking into the 2000amp in boost should start the car less then 2 volts or no battery connected if anyone with one would be willing to disconnect the battery cables and attempt the start the vehicle with just the noco boost jumpstarter in manual override for less then 2 volts and report back with results it would help me a ton so i dont loose 150-200$ on the wrong jumpstarter.

May i ask where the black friday sale is for the noco gbx45 what is the different from the noco gb 40 50 70 vs the GBX 45 55 and such? Id bet interested in one as well. My brothers 06 saab 2.3 4 cylinder battery goes dead as it has a battery drain somewhere i need to fix and leaves him stranded at work 6am in the morning so relaly looking for an affordable jumpstarter that will START A COMPLETELY DEAD BATTERY and just last month my 50$ 1 year walmart battery warranty expired so if i dont start my corvette weekly to keep the battery charged it may need jumpstart as well.

The thing is this topdown lithium about the same as the noco boost is 169$ for the 3000amp has boost button for dead or no batteries 40 jumpstarts and is a little over half the price of the expensive 300$ noco boost 3000amp jumpstarter. If purchased from walmart usually can buy the 2 year all state protection plan for 20$ and can be replaced at local walmart and 90 days to return to customer service if the product doesnt work as advertised say jumpstart a car with 2volt less battery or no battery.

Car Battery Jump Starter TOPDON JS3000 12V 3000A Battery Booster for Up to 9L Gas/ 7L Diesel Engines - Walmart.com
has manufacturer warranty 2 year i think a 3 year allstate for 22$ and 9l gas engines with no battery according to the ad.

The gb40 1000amp from walmart is 100$ says jumpstarts completely dead batteries manual override. The gb 50 1500 amp is 150$ but the topdown 3000amp for 169$ may be just as good as the noco. These are the 3 im looking it looking to purchase from a retailer for warranty purposes.
What is the difference between the gb and gbx models if someone could explain?

I have two or three of these. I can’t remember if they are the GB70 or 75’s but I can jump start my powerstroke or even the Peterbuilt I use at work!

I just bought one of these GB40's at Cabela's on sale for $99, and I gotta say I'm impressed. Hooked it up to a totalled Jeep Patriot that hadn't moved in 5 years with a completely dead battery and it started it instantly.
