Actually even better, the linked item is 15000mah instead of this one being 12000mah. I bought the diesel model last time it was up for 2 reasons, I have a diesel Suburban and it came with a macbook cord that I can vouch works even with MBPr (with the Apple adapter).
The Lion battery should hold a charge a very long time.
I have this model, I bought it for packing on my motorcycle. Had a bad battery on my bike and I used this pack to start it 5 times without having to recharge. This is a small package that is easy to carry and turned out to be quite useful,and having tips to charge a phone or something is a plus. Hardly any 12v outlets on a motorcycle, unless you ride a big tourer.
You will have to keep the lead acid type ‘topped up’ on charge more often - meaning it will probably not be charged when you need it most. Also, those compressors are (generally) garbage. You can buy canned air/fix-a-flat/other products to have on hand in an emergency and buy a better cheap compressor for topping off tires and filling basketballs. My experience, and from stories I’ve heard, is that those compressors often don’t work when you need them most too.
And if you don’t they’re toast and will no longer hold a charge. Great idea, bad execution. Get this plus one of those little compressors (still junk, but they usually work once – but fix-a-flat is better) and duct tape them together.
I velcro’d mine to an inverter – 300W AC in the palm of my hand mu-ha-ha!
