      yep, it's on Factory Scoop clearance

      • jv on 05/05/2013 - 00:56

        a scoop at almost twice the price of other stores ???

    (RP $149)

    Same one sells for $59 here, so you'd be getting ripped off badly if you paid $149…

      How much is the shipping cost from USA for this heavy stuff? Is there an any store Walmart in AUS? you'd good to give some evidence from AUS stores.

        give some evidence from AUS stores.

        you're the one claiming it's worth $149, when in fact it's only worth around $60…

    It's scary that something like this is now almost cheaper than a year's worth of NRMA roadside assist! :/

    • jv on 05/05/2013 - 01:13

      $79.49 delivered here…

      So why is the jb deal a bargain ????

        it's unknown brand mate. If you trust crasysales go for it. it's very easy to type comments but difficult find deals and post to others. Good luck ..

          If you trust crasysales go for it.

          Same consumer law applies as for jbhifi… Also, same warranty.

          It's exactly the same product… Why pay 20% more to buy it from JB and call it a bargain ??

        • WNK on 05/05/2013 - 01:38
          +2

          It's same kind of product but not same brand. I'm arguing with a person who compared price of same product in AUS & USA. :)

        That's a completely different product mate.

    This is starting to sound like "JV and WNK Go To White Castle"

    • StewBalls on 05/05/2013 - 01:47

      Damn you, now I want some sliders…

      … with a cook meat sandwich? no thanks.

  • mskeggs on 05/05/2013 - 10:06

    Kmart has similar for $60 but with a 17ah battery. Not a bargain.

    If you buy one of these, or a similar device, I recommend you get a solar charger of the sort sold by car accessory shops. It is essentially a solar cell, a lead, and a cigarette lighter plug. They won't (usually) charge a car battery, they are intended to keep a fully-charged battery "topped up".

    For a battery of the size used in jump starters, the solar charger might actually push out enough energy to charge it from flat, but I wouldn't depend on it.

    Keep the solar charger on a sunny windowsill, plugged into your jump starter, and it will always be ready to go. Otherwise, you'll have to remember to re-charge your jump starter every two months or so. If you forget, the battery will go flat, sulphate, and then it'll only be good as a doorstop.

      Otherwise, you'll have to remember to re-charge your jump starter every two months or so.

      or just leave it always plugged in, in your car boot…

        That'd be heavy man. Can't get the same lap records on the way to work with that kind of weight disadvantage :P. Naa but i do seriously try not to keep random heavy stuff in my car.

    • rhino015 on 05/05/2013 - 18:21

      I reckon that's a good idea. Cheers for that. Also if you were keeping a spare car battery out of a car, the solar charger would make it easy to maintain the battery without having it plugged into mains costing money. Not a lot of solar things are useful, but this sounds like a decent usage of them.
