P38A Jump starter boosters

I bought a Tacklife 800A pack from Amazon for £73. A bit pricey but it is the most impressive thing I've bought for ages. It is supposed to be able to start 6 litre engines. I used it on the wife rover 75 diesel and the sons Nissan Navera diesel and my series 3 all within one charge, it's brilliant.

Good spot. I have been looking for one of these. When I looked at Amazon I had a 20% voucher that could be applied to the cost, it took the price down to £66. The voucher might be account specific but worth a look if you are thinking about getting one of these.

I've seen a few people on here not liking the NOCO brand.
I've got the NOCO GB70 2000A jump pack. I've used it on a weekend camping trip mainly to power and use my iPhone and use the built in LED flashlight. Surprisingly at a 50% charge, I was able to jump start a friends Mitsubishi Pajero diesel so he could drive home after the camping trip.

I had one of these for years was rated for a 2.5D. Good new, after few years in cold shed it needed charging full the night before use. Worked on my 3.0 90, 270 hilux that had 2 battery’s, just about managed with 3.2 shogun, no chance with the P38 so I gave it away. All doozles.
