5.0 out of 5 starsUseful and Straight forward
April 12, 2018
This was a gift for my husband who isn't easily impressed with gadgets or fussy cheaply-made tools. He has used this item on our snow plow truck, snow mobiles and probably other toys that I don't even know we have. He swears by it's usefulness and performance claiming he'll never be without one, again. It lives in his company truck, now. I'm not sure if there's an unhealthy attachment forming or not but he insists this item is totally the bees knees.
Ladies: if you need a great gift for the guy who has too much of everything, here you are..not "gadget-y". Straightforward, gets the job done in short order, charges a cold weather-dead battery ultra quick whether it's plugged into an electrical socket or on it's own battery power. Follow the accompanying directions and charge the on board battery for 24 hrs before first use.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent power source
April 29, 2018
Size: JS87Verified Purchase
Finally field tested the 12 vdc power supply feature running two 1200 gpm water pumps with a high banker sluice box. The unit was eady to transport streamside with my other gear. I was pleased how it drove both pumps for almost six hours which about the time I had planned to stay anyway. The degradation was very gradual and only got to the point of lower volume of water output from the pumps in the last half hour of my stay. This power pack is much lighter than lugging around a deep cycle car battery!

5.0 out of 5 starsNice multi purpose device.
June 7, 2018
Size: JS87Verified Purchase
This device works as advertised. It takes a while to to tires up to 80 lbs though. The battery stays charged for a long time. I'm not exactly sure how long, but it held a charge for weeks for me without issue.

I had a problem with the first one I purchased and the seller was very responsive. The took care of it quickly and followed thru on everything they promised.

I'd definitely do business with this company again and would recommend this device.

I have a 2001 Vloks Wagen Jetta VR6. the battery was dead and the POTEK started my car right up. I also had a flat tire, it only took 7 mins to pump the tire which was great. It small and does not take up a lot of space.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat jump starter and compressor. Phenomenal support
November 5, 2018
Size: JS87Verified Purchase
Picked this up because we were getting a rash of punctures from nails and screws. Jump starting is the bonus feature for us.

The compressor is very nice. Like all small compressors it is a bit noisy but the gauge is stable (in spite of the vibrations while running) and accurate so you can let it fill the tire and just watch the gauge. I compared the pressure reading against two digital gauges and they all read the same. This was in the 36-40psi range. Can't speak to readings above that. The only suggestion I would have to improve this aspect of the product would be to put the PSI gauge on top of the unit as it will be on the pavement when filling a tire, not on a shelf at eye level. If the ground isn't level the unit will vibrate away like one of those old football game players.

My first one didn't have any output on the jumper cables when I tried them. Tested with a meter. Contacted the seller via Amazon messaging and they answered all my questions and provided personalized troubleshooting tips. Still didnt get any voltage at the jumper leads so they FedEx'd a replacement. Truly impressive and couldn't ask for better support.

The replacement worked great as a jumper. I did note that while the instructions say that the "cable connection polarity" indicator will illuminate green if the cables are properly connected, nothing illuminated. The annotated diagram on page 2 does not show a "cable connection polarity" indicator so maybe the indicator is on another model.

Once connected, you turn the On/Off main switch knob and power flows with no sparks or any other excitement.

The unit stores all the accessories including the manual. When using it as a compressor, I open both side storage doors to maximize cooling airflow. Heat destroys equipment and batteries so seems like a reasonable precaution.

While not cute and sexy like the little Lithium Ion jumper backs, the robustness of a sealed lead battery and the compressor in a nice, tidy and easy to store and move package makes the POTEK JS87-UL a great little unit.

Works as described. I like that it comes with a wall plug and is a self-contained unit as I keep it in my garage, not in trunk of car (which you may want a case for)

3.0 out of 5 starsFirst unit didn't last - but Potek customer service is excellent and replaced with no quibbles
August 21, 2018
Size: JS87Verified Purchase
Owned 2 weeks. Used about 6 times ona a car which had a dying baytery, then lost power with no warning. Battery shows barely any voltage, and absolutely no charge/battery test function/light operation unless plugged in, and then only shows as 'maintaining battery', not charging. Supplied with a fuse but no where to use it. Shame as cranked well whilst it lasted.

Potek later contacted me after I raised a ticket, and have since replaced this unit at no cost to me. New unit is working great so far, so upping to 3 star for now (hoping I just had a doozy), and if replacement lasts will bump to 4 or 5 based on value and performance.

1.0 out of 5 starsStopped working after 6 months
November 13, 2018

I loved the portability of the compressor and the confidence of always having a jump—until the thing broke out of nowhere. First the compressor seemed weaker than normal and then light and battery indicator stopped working and finally it wouldn't even charge.
