Pros: Simple and Portable
Cons: Constant battery maintenance and Lack of power

"I bought this portable jump starter for my 1998 Toyota 4Runner. Although it is very portable and simple to use, it does not provide enough power to crank up the heavy duty batteries. The colder it gets, the harder it is to charge the battery. In addition, you have to wait at least 15 minutes before the battery is charged. Battery maintenance is another hassle. You have to keep it charged every month, otherwise, the battery will go dead like mine did after only 6 months. Luckily, it was still under warranty and I was sent another Simple Start, abeit a refurbished one. I would recommend purchasing the heavy-duty portable jump starters instead of the Simple Start."
