Even better ultra-portable jumper box

Moving down to another even better ultra-portable jumper box, we have the DBPOWER DJS30 Car, Phone and Laptop Power Pack. What makes this unit quite impressive is the compatibility and the power output that it provides. Right from the box, you’ll see this unit comes in a convenient soft case which also stores all of the included accessories. This unit is meant to be brought with everywhere and to have all of the things it comes with at all times. Unlike the previous unit, this guy weighs in at just over 1 lbs, which is incredibly light weight. In addition, the overall length is 7.5″ inches, 1.9″ inches in height, and 3.4″ inches in overall width.

This SUAOKI U10 includes a series of RED led lights located on one side, as well as a ultra-bright white led light located on the front. With the 16,500 mAh of power and 600 amps of peak power to get your vehicle cranking, you’re looking at roughly 20 or so full jumps before needing to recharge this pack. Essential accessories like the positive and negative terminal are created in a way that you won’t easily touch both terminals accidentally. Also, the USB port and additional charging terminal can be used to charge a wide range of laptops and electronics.

Just throw this unit into your trunk storage area OR, place it in your glove box. It’s not just for jumping your vehicle, it’s for jumping everything else too.

5 Books to Read Before Starting Your Business

Starting a new business is no small undertaking. There are many factors to be considered, and it is important to do your research and prepare yourself as much as possible, with some 80 percent of new businesses failing within the first couple of years.

Over the past 15 years, I have had the opportunity to be the founder or co-founder of three companies in three different industries.

I am convinced that it was the information I absorbed in these books and the validation from mentors that has helped me to avoid a bunch of potholes on the road to success in business.
