I just had the chance to use my GB40 on a neighbor's car twice in the last few days. Had to use the "boost" mode the second time, battery only read
2V on multimeter. Worked as advertised.
Used this charger about a dozen times now (not on my own vehicles, yet) and it seems to still work just fine after 3 years. Seems to be well made and
worth the price, and peace of mind.

Coincidently, yesterday I got my Type S out to check the charge level. I haven't used it for almost six months, but it had plenty of life in it.
I got it at Costco four or five years ago for about $60. A tip for avoiding device stress.....If you store one of these battery packs under your
seat, make sure it is not over an exhaust pipe or catalytic converter!KurtG - 3-31-2021 at 10:25 AM
My 3 year old eBay generic $30 one also still works fine. I recently used it to start a 3.5 liter Honda V6 that had a dead battery and it fired it
right up. I bought it for motorcycle use but ended up using it only on cars or for phone recharging. John Harper - 3-31-2021 at 04:05 PM

Hey, $30 makes it a great "stocking stuffer" for next holiday season!
