I'm thinking I will pull the trigger on this noco boost plus jump pack for $63, less amps then your link but made to start up to 6 liter gas engines, more than enough for me.
https://www.amazon.com/NOCO-GB40-UltraSafe-Lithium-Starter/dp/B015TKUPIC?th=1

I bought the NOCO last year. Used it once on a Honda Civic this summer. No problems. Fired it up.

Was looking to get another and found this video. Ordered the Audew Thursday.

Very nice jump start pack, I need to get one. I have a big jump pack that gets toted around, it's big but nice to have if you need to use it and I have had to for the car and phones during a power outage, might have to get one of those smaller ones for the girlfriends van.

Doing some research, and reading the video comments, he didn't have the noco in the right setting for jumping a completely dead battery, have to hold the button for 3 seconds. He does make pretty good videos though.  Noco has been around for awhile but open to other brands and now looking around  ::) ;)

This jump pack seems nicely reviewed also. Great, decisions now.... (it is on sale, trying not to get too much off topic here)

The NOCO didn't good in any of the tests. The name is why I bought the NOCO last Cyber Monday.

I've been telling myself to buy at least one of these for years now. Finally pulled the trigger and got one for each of our vehicles. Great price with the $25 off coupon, makes em $75 for a really high power one. Reviews seem pretty good. Hopefully never have to use em ha.

A good thing to have for peace of mind, but for not much more you could get a new battery for your vehicle.

My policy is, if the battery reaches 5 to 7 years old it goes - even if it's working "just fine." (If it starts to crank slightly slower in cold weather, that's it's last winter.)  The few dollars you "leave on the table" by replacing a battery before it totally fails are not worth the risk of getting stranded.

I have a brand new interstate battery. I also still carry a jumper pack. If (and hopefully not for me) anyone ever needs a jump, my pack will get them going. Done it many times and people are very appreciative for the help.

Damn, missed a great deal on a float suit! pretty bummed about that.

Trekker was/is $99 a piece at runnings stores. They were giving extra $10 gift cards for each $50 spent too, making this fish USA deal less attractive.... ultimately be careful about the trekker, not sure where you fish but it seems like it would be fairly cold to fish in here in MN. Give a call to Frank's they might still honor the discounted pricing on the striker suits. I went with the predator, best middle of the way imo.

Fair enough but hope ur truck or wheeler never goes bad at the wrong time. IMO a jump pack should be part of everyone’s gear list. Sorry to disrupt the thread buddy.

I think it'll be warmer than my current Jacket, Frabill I2 Series Jacket. I believe that jacket is only 300 Denier compared to the Trekker at $600. I typically dress warm enough so I do not need the jacket, but would like a float suit.

Also, looks like Runnings is $99 for the Jacket OR Bibs but not both. Seeing if Bass Pro will match Fish USA Promo.

After watching that video I would say that the E-drill cuts really slow.

He also looks like he is pushing down on the drill as well. Maybe OE is the problem..

I like Dicks as well but really slow in gearing up for ice fishing. They had nothing in stock Burl VT a week ago.
I scored an Otter Pro hub cabin for $269 and Vex FLX 20 for $466 from Reeds. Suggest mentioning the 5/15 sale they had
pre -Thanksgiving and ask about VIP membership.

That's weird, a buddy of mine sent me pictures from their store a couple weeks ago and they were loaded up...

walked out of Fleet today with a Big Buddy for $99. $139 marked down to $109 and a $10 coupon on their ice flyer. Much easier than ordering on line, plus my wife doesn't see it.
