Being stranded by the side of the road with a drained car battery can cause anyone to panic, especially if you don't have jumper cables. But you can give your car battery a boost from inside the comfort of your car with Black & Decker's Simple Start Battery Booster Car Starter. The Simple Start puts you back on the road quickly — just plug, charge, and go. No need for jumper cables or waiting for help to arrive. Simply insert the Simple Start's DC adapter into any of the car's 12-volt DC or cigarette lighter outlets and wait several minutes. A boost indicator LED and audible beep lets you know when your battery is charged and ready to start.

- When I needed it, it let me down...
- I purchased this in the aftermath of a hurricane two years ago, in hopes of being able to use it to power a fan so we could sleep at night (we were without power for a week).

I haven't had to use it since then. Its only a year old and it doesnt work anymore. I guess the battery lifetime is short. I charged it at least once a month when I didnt… More reviews
