iClever 800A Peak 20000mAh Car Jump Starter Review

Main Review

When used as a battery pack

It works great for use as a phone charger, coming with two USB ports that both support Qualcomm Quick charge my Galaxy S7 charged from dead to full in around 1hr and 40 minutes charging equally as fast as the Quick Charge wall charger that came with my phone, It also has the ability to charge multiple items supporting 2 USB devices,a Type-c device and a car charger device all at the same time you and your friends will never need to worry about having enough ports with this device.

Also this device is packing 20000mAh of battery capacity meaning you can charge most phones more than 5 times before needing to plug the battery pack in and even more impressively this battery charged from dead to full in less than 8hrs! That’s extremely impressive considering the huge capacity.

 

When used to jump a car

I don’t want the most important part of this review to seem short but quite simply it works amazingly. I drained my car battery to completely dead and after pressing the boost button on the jumper cables my car cranked and was running like normal in around 30 seconds! This is way faster than jumping by another car and the added portability of having the battery in your car makes this a must have if you travel a lot.

Almost as impressive is that jumping my car didn’t even make a noticeable dent in the battery capacity since the battery indicator lights show the capacity in increments of 25% it stayed on 100% even after jumping.

The main control hub when you jump a car. Once the jumper cables are connected to your car you press the boost button and the light above correct will turn green, around 30 seconds later you should be able to start your car. If the jumper cables are on incorrectly a red light will appear under reverse.The port where the jumper cables connect to the main battery pack.

Other Utilities

Along with every form of charging you’ll ever need and the ability to jump your car before you can call the boss to tell him you’ll be late this device is packing a fairly decent built-in flashlight in case you get stranded. The flash light has 3 modes, an on mode, strobing mode that flashes the light quickly and an SOS mode that flashes the light in Morse code for SOS.

This battery packs included flashlight gets impressively bright, for comparison this room is pitched black without the light.

 

Build Quality

This device feels extremely rugged which is good considering you’ll mostly use it around your car and in the outdoors, The main housing is made with a very thick and solid feeling plastic and a ton of screws holding everything together I feel like it would take a lot to damage this thing.

The only complaint I have for this entire battery is that the device isn’t rated for any type of water or dust resistance, while it is certainly a terrible idea to try to jump a car in the middle of a rain storm it would have been nice to see some form of water resistance to keep it safe when you’re outdoors or on a camping trip.

 

Now on to the final score and closing thoughts!
