Hi,

Used the search function and Been looking through the posts as its that time of year and looking for a Power pack/Jump starter, seems Scottyav recommended the "XS PowerPack" a while back and was endorsed by Ironhorse which is good enough for me

http://www.johncraddockltd.co.uk/land-rove...torch.html


Just wondering if anything new/better is available out there now?,

If anyone has any info would be good to know before I pull the trigger on the "XS PowerPack DA1239"( if they're still available),

Also any tips on cheapest place to buy of course

mines still 75% charged and hasn't been used for 12 months so i tried it last week on an audi a6 and was piece of cake to start  _____________________________________________________

Thanks Gents,

That's the threads I read and Seen Scottys post ,

Weegie The Floreon will it start a RR from flat ?

Depends what you mean by "flat". It started mine when there wasn't enough juice in the battery to turn the starter. Just a click. Connected the Floureon and away it went.

There are several Floueons it appears. The one recommended is T3 18000mAh. John

No it won't - certainly a cold 3.6 TDV8 without a battery connected..... see the comment from Phil Bathhurst halfway down.

Mine started a Mini Cooper S with a completely dead battery, but a big diesel is a different proposition.....

Alistair, Curious about the "no battery connected" comment. I wouldn't try using any jump starter without a battery connected?? John

My Snap On booster pack won't start my Td V8 3.6 from flat but will start next doors BMW X5 3.0d from flat as I found out yesterday. Started first go and there was less than 9 volts in the BMW battery.
