STANLEY Stanley J5C09D 1200 Peak Amp Automotive

What’s not included in the information provided:

(1) The type of battery is it. (From the instructions to charge it every 30 days, I’d bet on a sealed lead acid battery.

(2) The battery energy storage capacity.

(3) The light output in lumens.

That information isn’t provided by Stanley, either:

Humans today don’t want the ACTUAL specs of anything. Humans have been dumbed down to accept… “it has oodles of power!” and “it’s super duper bright!” People like us, who want ACTUAL data are a dying breed…

  • Battery Type: The unit uses a Sealed Lead-Acid (SLA) battery with Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology. This chemistry is specifically used in jump starters because it functions well in a wide temperature range, making it ideal for cold weather starts. It is required to be recharged every 30 days if not in use.

  • Battery Energy Capacity: Depending on the specific production run, the internal battery has a nominal capacity ranging from 18 Amp Hours (Ah) to 22 Amp Hours. For example, the SigmasTek replacement battery specifically for this model is rated at 22 Amp Hours.

  • Flashlight Output: While the exact lumen count for this specific integrated light is not consistently labeled in technical sheets, it is described as a high-powered LED work light that rotates 270 degrees for roadside repairs. Comparable Stanley Fatmax LED work lights are often rated at approximately 120 lumens.

I take everything AI says with a grain of salt. I have caught AI in numerous lies, that are easily disproven… :man_shrugging:

I’m confident today’s product contains a lead acid battery. And while that might mean compromises in terms having to maintain it by regularly charging it, it’s not all bad. Lead acid chemistry is far more temperature-tolerant vs the Lithium chemistry batteries in most modern battery boosters.

The included photo shows what I believe might be the original generation of today’s product. I’ve owned it since at least 2015, perhaps earlier.

It worked flawlessly until last fall. In fact, the compressor and power ports still work fine. We used it to boost our vacation property tractor and to power a 12VDC camping shower pump. Since the internal battery appears fine, I suspect there is a problem with the boost switch or circuit to the cables. I’ll be opening it up to diagnose. But this unit was a work horse for over 10 years. From the charge logs taped to the front it can be seen I regularly charge-maintained it.

I believe I paid $29.xx for it at Sam’s Club or Costco. While there’s certainly no assurance today’s Woot product is built as solidly, if the price were $49.xx, I’d more seriously consider it. Although it now lacks a cigarette power port.

  • 2.1A/10W USB and 12V outlet for charging devices

The above highlighted feature from the product details appears to be from a legacy version of this product and does NOT appear to be included.
