All in one

I started traveling and driving out of town now. Love having this in my car and know I can jump start my car or air up a low tire without anything or anyone else. Thankfully, haven't needed it for that yet. We did air up a bike tire, and it worked well and fast. The light is super bright as well!

Handy device on the road

Have already used it 3 times and works great and keeps a charge for a long time! Would recommend to anyone and will buy again when I need to a new one

Better than jumper cables.

Excellent device to use to jump start a weak battery engine or pump up low tires. With newer cars it can be risky to use standard jumper cables when your car has so many digital chips that can be damaged if something goes wrong.

Better model works great...small issue

I had the previous model. The jumpstart capability was something left to be desired (typically would only "help" if another vehicle didn't have the amps to jump another vehicle, I ran this in parallel). The compressor was great. I went to Sams, finally frustrated with the non-jumps. They let me swap for the newer (this) model. Everything is updated and better. I think the compressor could be a little better however as I was pumping a trailer tire up to 60 psi (this is rated for 120). The connector to the compressor internally broke (was still in the compressor hose, could see it was plastic). High heat, high pressure, more than likely made it give up. No worries, Sams swapped again for a new one. This one (so far) is working great. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is because the internal compressor connector is plastic. I know and saw it, and it's bound to break again. Thankfully, Sams is great with returns!

Older model was a much better design

This newer model operating position is flat. The air hose is shorter so if your valve stem is at the top you have to hold it up to get your tire aired up. It doesn't fit down in my side box like the older model I have. The light is built into the lid of the air hose cover so you can't aim it as well. It comes with a charge adapter that you have to keep somewhere. There's nowhere on the unit to store it. If you lose the cable you can't charge it and it's junk. On the older model you could plug an extension cord right into the back and charge it.

Not worth the money!

I've had this about 2 years now, and I have loved it until now, battery shows full charge, I go to pump up a tire and after 5 seconds battery is dead. Surprised, I plug it in and charge it. 45 minutes later it's charged, I hook it back up and runs 10 seconds, dead again. I test the battery and it shows 12.6V, so I guess something went wrong with the circuit board, I don't know. I searched for the circuit board and found it for about $45.00. The whole thing cost me $89.00. It should last longer than it did, I don't think it's a good value.

Please charge your unit for the next 24 hours. It is recommended to charge this unit every 30-90 days to prevent the unit from discharging. If stored in a discharged state, this will reduce the life expectancy of the internal battery or can cause the battery to retain a surface voltage (which can cause the unit to read a false full charge). If further assistance is needed, please contact Baccus Global Technical Support at 877.571.2391 or email at CustomerService@Baccusllc.com

Disappointing

Purchased this which I thought was new, but was actually a return to Sam's Club (seal was carefully broken and some Christmas paper on the package). Would not hold a charge, which is why it was returned the first time. Returned.

A Very Disappointing Inflator

When I used this, fully charged, as an inflator to air up tires on my utility trailer, it took forever and the battery was showing on the gauge as nearly half charged after just a few minutes. I then tried it on my riding lawnmower’s tires, and again, it was slow; I managed to air up the tire on the other side as quickly using an old-fashioned bicycle pump. A shame, because if it worked well it would have been handy to have in my garage, plugged in and ready to go whenever needed.
