OUTSMART YOUR CAR WITH HUMBLE & ROGUE

Jump Box, Jump Box, Jump Box: I See the Car Take Off

Remember when you needed a pair of old jumper cables and a willing participant (with a working car) to jump-start a dead car battery?

A jump pack — a more conveniently designed portable jump-starting device — is the modern solution for how to charge a dead battery in your car. You can even use them on your own, without the need for another person or connecting to a running vehicle.

Portable jump packs are also safer than jumper cables — since you’re not connecting to another vehicle’s battery, you don’t have to worry about crossing terminals. Plus, jump packs can come with other nifty tools, like a flashlight for when it’s dark and USB ports for charging your phone.

If you’re trying to figure out how to charge a dead battery with a jump pack, all you need to know is:

1. The red cable connects to the positive side of the battery
2. The black cable connects to the negative side of the battery
3. Plug the cables into the jump pack after securing them to the battery

It’s that easy — even Rich and Charles could figure it out. Don’t believe us? Just watch the video!
