Hello,
Recently, somewhere I saw jump starters (powerbanks) to start the car when the battery goes out (e.g. when you leave the car at the traffic lights overnight) and we have no way to start the car. The question is whether it will work, for example, for the Audi A4 1.8T 2000? And what do you recommend to buy, up to PLN 280. What to look for? Is such a Forever jump starter - Jump Starter Powerbank 12000 with parameters as below enough?
Product features:
-Capacity: 12,000mAh
-Car output: 12V / 200A
-Maximum instantaneous current: 400 A for 3 seconds
-Two USB outputs: 5V - 1A (max) and 5V - 2A (max) for charging mobile devices
- Working temperature: -20 to +60 degrees
-Lifetime: About 1000 Charging Cycles

Secondly, it is not for nothing that cars use large blocks of lead with a capacity of several dozen Ah and a guaranteed starting current of several hundred Amps. Simply, no starter will allow you to start the car if the car's main battery is discharged to zero. Especially in a diesel engine, which has a high internal resistance to start. With a malfunctioning battery, or with a slight discharge, such a starter can do the job. In more severe cases ... IMHO forget it.
