I have one. I bought it solely based on Project Farm's review on YouTube. I bought it back over the summer and finally got to use it a few weeks ago when a coworker needed a jump. First of all, even though I charged it months earlier and it had been sitting in my hot truck 24/7, it was still at 100 percent charge. I connected it to my friend's car and it started immediately when he turned the key. Afterwards, it only drained the battery by 3 percent. I then jumped him again a few hours later when he was leaving and it worked just as before, only dropping by 3 percent. I paid almost $100 for it, and I saw on Audews Facebook page they were offering it for like $65 or something for black Friday. I can't speak highly enough of it.

I ordered on 11/20 for ~$80ish with a lesser coupon code. One thing I noticed is that even though the clamps appear the same as nearly every other jumper on the market, they're actually physically larger, which is good as the TINY clamps that come with most (excluding NOCO which has arguably the nicest clamps) have always baffled me.

I also like that it charges w USB Type C vs stupid mini USB, and when you plug it in it actually illuminates text of "USB C IN" rather than just a light.

The only thing I noticed was that after fully charging it read 94% once I disconnected it.

These were OOS for a long time after the PF video, so I'm just hoping they didn't cut corners on internals to meet demand and increase profits (which would be textbook Chinese business ethics - read Poorly Made in China, available on Amazon).

The only problem is there is no override feature if the battery is 100% dead!

Theres a little button on the dongle that serves as an override. Its referred to as the "boost" button. It's used when the car battery is completely dead. It bypasses the safety measures of the jumper pack to deliver maximum power.

Yep you gotta hold it for X seconds and it'll engage the override....at least on all others with this design

I've now received notice from Amazon they cannot fill my order for this Audew jump pack because there is insufficient inventory available. I bet they didn't mean to stack the discounts and now don't want to honor the sale.

Oh well, that's $68 I now didn't spend.

I ordered a second at this price and it's out for delivery today. It's just holiday demand kicking their *** I'd guess, and mass panic resulting in poor choices trying to "control" an airborne virus.

OP I got the $64 price back when you first posted this ad. Thanks. It replaced a Noco GB 40 my brother in law talked us out of on his last road trip up here.

I had to use it today & it jumped my 5.7 Sequoia fresh out of the box. I did not have to use Boost.

I like the case better on the Audew but the clamps better on the Noco. I've bought all three of my jump packs in the $60 range. Great when you need them. Worth full price but always glad to save money.

Thanks again.
