A dependable all-in-one roadside tool that deliver

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Stanley jump starter has been a reliable tool to keep in my vehicle. The 1200 peak amps provide plenty of power to jump a dead battery, even on larger trucks, and the built-in 120 PSI compressor is super handy for topping off tires. I’ve used it multiple times and it’s never let me down. It holds a charge well and is easy to recharge. The unit is durable, relatively compact for its capabilities, and simple to operate even for someone without much experience. It’s loud when the compressor runs, but it gets the job done quickly. Overall, a solid and versatile tool.

Stanley FatMax 1200 Amp Jumper/Compressor: Powerfu

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After owning a previous model of the Stanley FatMax 1200 Amp Jumper/Compressor, and being pretty darn happy with it, I was excited to give the newer model a try. Honestly, it was worth every penny I spent on it the first time, but I was curious to see if they had addressed any of the “shortcomings” I noticed from the older version. Here's the rundown from my experience with both the new and older models: What I like (Pros): - Battery Life is Solid: Both models hold a charge like nobody's business. I've left the original sitting in my trunk for months, and when I picked it up again, it was still showing a full charge! I haven't owned the new one long enough to determine if that's still the case, but I imagine it is. - The Air Compressor is Actually Useful: I really like that you can set the exact PSI you need, and it just stops when it gets there. No more guessing! It's been great for topping off the tires on my vehicles and for my family's bike tires. Both models are a little loud when using the compressor, but they work superbly well. - Plenty of Power: This thing has some serious juice. I've used my original to jump-start my brother's V8 truck, the wife's van, and my car. It hasn't let me down once. I've only used the new version one time for this purpose and it worked perfectly. - USB Ports: One of my gripes with the first model was the fact that it had four USB-A ports. With the world moving to USB-C, I found myself wishing it included some of those as well. Alas, this new model swapped two of the ports for USB-C! This is super handy for charging phones and other gadgets when you're on the go. And I can confirm that the USB-C ports allowed for quick charging on my Google Pixel 8 Pro. - Adjustable LED Light: if you've ever had to pop the hood of your vehicle in the dark, you know how difficult it can be to navigate that space when you don't have sufficient lighting. This jumper includes a built-in LED light that you can angle to meet your needs. It is extremely bright and gives you all the light you will need. What could be better (Cons): - Those Jumper Cables are Short: My biggest gripe on both units is definitely the length of the booster cables. They're only about two feet long, and sometimes it's a real pain trying to maneuver the unit to get a good connection on the battery. This is done to keep the unit compact, but I really wish they were a foot or two longer. - The Air Hose Could Use Some Extra Length Too: Similar to the jumper cables, the air hose for the compressor feels a little short at times. While, this is not as cumbersome as working with the jumper cables, a bit more length would make things a lot easier. - The Alternator Check is Finicky: I've tried using the alternator check a few times on the older model, and it seems pretty sensitive. You have to have a perfect connection, especially on the negative side, or it just won't work right. I have only tested the new model for this use case once and it seemed to work fine. I'll have to do some more testing to determine if this was addressed in the new model. What I've Used It For: - Jumping starting vehicles – it's a lifesaver! - Adding air to tires – works like a dream. - Trying to check my alternator (when I can get it to work!). - Charging my phone and other USB devices. - Extra lighting while working under the hood of my car or in my garage Overall, I'm really impressed with this Stanley FatMax Jumper/compressor unit. The long battery life and the air compressor with the auto-stop feature are fantastic. The only real downsides for me are those short cables and the finicky alternator check. But honestly, for the power it packs and the convenience, portability, and peace of mind it offers, I'd definitely recommend it as a must-have in any vehicle. You never know when you might need it.

Highly versatile Stanley FatMax

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest feedback. Highly versatile Stanley FatMax! Lightweight and transportable. You just charge it up and take it with you. Air compressor provides freedom to charge without an extension cord. It can be used to charge electronic devices. I used it on a short camping trip. I haven’t used the jumper cables yet. It is a great option for a road trip, a nice piece of mind know you have a back in case you need it.

Handy to have

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complementary for my honest review. The jumpers seem to work well and the compressor worked really well to air up my stroller tires. It is pretty loud and the battery life could be better but overall a good product

Works perfectly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this device. Coincidentally my tire pressure light came on shortly after receiving this item, worked a charm. I love that it can be used as a power bank to charge other devices, will come in handy if there’s a storm and we have no power. Seems very sturdy and well made.

All-in-One Powerhouse!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Where has this been all my life?! This jumper from Stanley can literally do it all. I've never been able to have a jumper in my car that I can easily use myself without having to call AAA. It can put air in my tires with an auto-shut-off so I don't accidentally overfill them. The best part are the four auxiliary USB charging ports! In a power outage this is indispensable! Taking this on a camping trip to power our devices is a game-changer for us- we love it so much!

The extra tool I didn't know I needed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received the Stanley 1200 peak amp power station and have found many uses. The compact design allows me to store easily, or travel with portable power.I have used the compressor feature, and I like that you can preset the recommended pressure and it fills to that. Be sure to charge the machine completely to get best use.

Comes in handy when you really need it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing came just in time! I mainly got it as a jump starter but it’s nice to have the built in air compressor as well. My father’s 1962 MG-A’s battery died and I had just the right thing for him. Worked like a charm. Only comment is that it is quite heavy, and the usb a and c charging ports are a nice touch but I doubt I’ll ever use them

Best portable jumper and compressor I've tried!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This portable jump starter is literally the best one I've tried yet! It's build quality is superb and it does it's jobs better than i though possible. Not only will this jump your car, but the tire inflator is AUTOMATIC. you just set the psi and it will fill to it and stop! As someone with a couple slow leaks in my tires, it's so nice to easily and quickly fill them up to a safe pressure! Highly highly recommend this product.

A must have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a wonderful combination system. You have options to charge phones, jump batteries, or even pump tired. The air compressor makes minimal noise and works fast to add air to a tire. The directions are easy to understand, which makes this easy to use. The hard plastic shell makes for a very durable product.
