I've not had good luck with those jump starters. I had 2 of them, and neither worked good-one didn't even work at all. You might go on the maker's website and see if they have any help.

Take it apart. The wires on the battery are probably corroded.

Sounds like battery not holding charge. Or a light staying on, boot or glovebox? Most likely battery tho.

Could be one of two things.

1. Your starter motor is no good.
2. If you turn on your lights and try to start the car and they dim to almost black, then you need to check the battery connections.

SOURCE: method of charging a 2004 Mercedes E320 battery

It is always safer to charge the battery out of circuit, Removal of one cable will insure you can safely charge without hurting electronics on board. Generally if your battery is already sufficiently charged it acts like a capacitor in the circuit and will prevent damage, but many battery chargers do not always put out a pure dc voltage and this can damage electonics.

Hello, After charging my Peak 300 Jump Starter it whistle's (loudly) after I unplug it and it just keeps whistling... Can you tell me what the matter? email:

Refer to the instructions that came with charger. If you threw them away you have a problem You can go on line and download instructions.
Low Charge Alert (LCA)
On the front of the unit there is a Low Charge Alert port. There is a red plug in this port. With the plug
removed, when the battery level drops to LO, an alarm will sound to remind the user to recharge the
Jump-Starter.
The alarm can be turned off one of three ways:

Placing the pin back into the Low Charge Alert port

Recharging the battery immediately to bring it to the capacity of 10% or more

Pressing the battery indicator display button. If the alarm is turned off by pressing the battery
display button, the alarm will sound automatically again in approximately 1 hour.
The alarm will only be turned off permanently if the battery is in a fully charged state, or the pin is
inserted in the Low Charge Alert port. There is a storage port on the back of the Jump-Starter for the
LCA plug. When the plug is removed from the LCA port, it should be installed in the storage port on the
back of the Jump-Starter.
Charging Jump-Starter Battery
All rechargeable batteries gradually discharge when left idle, and you need to recharge them
periodically to maintain maximum battery capacity. The AC charger plug within the Jump-Starter is
designed to charge using a 110/120-volt outlet.

Fully charge unit to the recommended maximum and initial charge time of 24 hours. Thereafter, an
AC typical charge time is 8 to 12 hours.

Recharge the unit fully after each use. This will prolong the life of the battery because frequent
discharges between recharges will reduce battery life.

Make sure all functions of the Jump-Starter are turned off during recharging

WHEN THE UNIT IS FULLY CHARGED DOES IT FLASH GREEN OR RED.

Maybe the rechargeable battery needs replacing. Go to a battery store and buy a replacement.

Where do I plug in the cord to start charging the jump starter (Black & amp; Sage ) 900 peak ,350

Google for an owner's manual. I can't find anything on this jump starter, but first they need to be charged, usually by plugging into a wall socket for 12-24 hours. Then plug into the cigarette lighter for 10 min or so to give the car battery a boost charge.

My EverStart maxx jump starter 600 amp will not charge

Why are these forum responses so often worthless? I have one of these units and it has never worked correctly. It says the battery is fully charged but when you try to jump start it; it beeps then the battery indicator says it's empty. You plug it in and if flashes between 3 and 4/4 battery bars. The USB does the same thing. Originally, it worked but the battery was always less than what a small portable battery offers in capacity. The air compressor and light used to work too.

2001 Avalon was dead (battery). Won't start or jump

If the battery is fully charged there is but one thing tjst gives you those symtoms. You simply have a bad connection at the negativbattery cable. It won't hurt to ck the positive cable also. This os a common thing when a battery is connected and idle..Always disconnect the bat neg if the the vwhicle won't be used for more than two days. If possible, don't charge your dead battery with the alternator of the vehicle. It could very possibly cause charging problems. The clickinf is from insufficient voltage and jump stating with te dead battery still in place doesnt work because the goog and bad batteries are try to balance again, causing low voltage/amps to the starter. Good Luck. Sorry about the lesson, habit.
