One person who called it “worth every penny” said: “It seems to be a universal rule that cars only ever break down when it is difficult to get anything done about it. I needed to use mine for a short trip on Christmas day. After clearing ice off the windows, I got in, turned the ignition and nothing but a clicking noise.
“No one was available to help, so I was unable to use the car that day. Thinking about the problem, I realised that for the past few weeks, I had been using the car for work with the lights, heaters, dashcam, satnav and radio all on, followed by 5 days of only using the car twice for 1.5-mile trips to the local shop.
“Having intended to buy one of these boosters a while back for emergencies, I ordered a NOCO Boost Sport GB20 from Amazon (the cheapest NOCO model because my car is only a 1.2 litre, so well within the specified “up to 4 litre” range.
“The product arrived promptly, but unfortunately comes with only about 1/4 charge. The manual says to fully charge before use, which I estimated at 3 hours, given the USB charger I was using. After the 3 hours were up, I clipped the leads to the battery, turned on the unit, gave it 30 seconds, crossed my fingers and then turned the ignition – it started first time. “
Some people did have some complaints though. Some complained how short the cables were. One reviewer said: The cables are ridiculously short, a lot of modern cars don’t give you full access to vehicle battery. The charge points on my sons car were too far apart to attach the Positive & Negative at the same time. I had attach jump leads to the points and then the supplied cables to them.
“I have since found out that you can purchase longer leads, but that is £23 on top. If the supplied cables were longer then this would have 5 stars.”
