Minor points missing from the instructions:
- When finished charging, blue lights turn off
- Charge level LED's turn off after 1 minute of inactivity
- Doesn't mention that the slow strobe mode of the flashlight is Morse code for SOS (this is mentioned on the box)
- Why do the 2 USB ports have different power levels? (1.1A and 2.1A)
Again, minor points, and they don't detract from the functionality.
Update 8-21-18 Battery died today (I knew it was failing), but it died so completely that dashboard lights wouldn't come on.
From the product description: "Use the boost button when you need to jump start a low voltage or fully discharged battery."
From the instructions for the Boost button:
- Note: A discharged car battery (Low Voltage) will trigger the PBJ300's [sic - I have the PBJ700] Low Voltage Protection" (indicated by no light).
- Press and hold Boost button for 3 seconds
- Jump start indicator light will turn Green
But my light Jump start indicator light was blinking red. This indicates that "Jumper Starter has low battery".
That's why I give this device one star - my PBJ700 was fully charged and the 4 power lights indicated this.
