CEN-TECH 3 IN 1 JUMP STARTER
Anyone have knowledge of the CEN-TECH 3 in 1 jump starter? $40 at Harbor Freight. Is it reliable and worth it?

Guess my question is why do you need one of these?? Do you need to jump start that often, or do you just use as a 12v supply?
Not a CenTech, but I've had a similar unit for years.
The best use is:
You're out boondocking with friends. One has a dead battery (left a light on) and asks you for a jump. Your awning is out, your slide is out and he's hoping you will stow all your gear, drive over and give him a jump! Instead, you point to the storage bin where the jump starter is and tell him to put it back when he's done!
Second best is when YOU left a light on and the starting battery is dead (usually on the toad) you don't have to ask your buddy (or stranger) for a jump.
The compressor feature is handy, too. Great for bikes/motorbikes, will take forever to air a truck tire, but maybe enough to limp to a station.
