Default Wal-Mart jump starter for $19

I found this at the local Wal-Mart yesterday and bought one. For $19 I'm happy;

Don't know if it's just my local Wally World or Nation wide. The thing is only about twice the size of my iPhone!

Become familiar with connecting to your bike's positive starter post and negative to a ground bolt, and you should be good to go!

Short money to get you out of a jam. I purchased one of these to carry when I snowmobile or go out on the bike. Small, powerful and very portable. Not near the deal you got.

Even at $39 it's a good deal. The $60 to $90 are 4 or more times this size and weigh a lot more.

Two different purposes. Battery tender is to keep your battery at full charge when stored for extended periods. Tends to make your battery last more years.

Jumper is designed to start something with a dead battery when you do not have jumper cables or another car nearby with a good battery.

Also triples as a flash light and a way to recharge your run down cell phone in an emergency.
