Jump starters that demonstrated high-quality in at least two of those three factors scored best in this test.Įach year, we test over 350 auto products on vehicles and in our testing lab. Durability: Ultimately, a jump starter’s durability comes down to three factors: materials used in it’s creation, build-quality, and design.Ease of Use: When left with just a dead car battery and a jump starter, how easy was it to use said jump starter to get our testing vehicle running again? This was a question our team asked as we figured out just how useful and intuitive to use each jump starter was.Then, we put that to the test by attaching each jump starter to our carbon pile tester. Power: Simple and straightforward to understand, we first judged the advertised voltage and cold-cranking amps of each jump starter.Jump Starter Testing Criteriaīelow, we detail exactly how we tested and judged each category of our testing: We attached each recommended jump starter to a carbon pile tester, which can help gauge a battery’s cold-cranking amps and voltage. Then, we attached it to a carbon pile battery tester to measure voltage and check the battery power.Ī carbon pile battery tester can measure the current a battery can discharge through its resistor. For testing, we unpacked each jump starter and charged it fully.
