The continuous advancement of technology means that all devices are constantly improving. The power bank has also undergone this kind of transformation, which, in addition to charging your smartphone's battery, will help you start your car.
Any vehicle can now be started with the portable starter Baseus Super Energy Max in just one second, as the modern design with 4-cell batteries is much more efficient than the 3-cell counterparts.
Start your car immediately
With 2000A starting current, you will easily start cars with large engines, such as gasoline cars up to 8L and diesel cars up to 4L, thus saving you time and money from roadside assistance.
Additionally, it features a reliable overload and short-circuit protection system, which means your devices will charge with the utmost safety.
Built-in LED Light
Equipped with a built-in LED light to safely connect the clamps in the dark, allowing you to easily jump-start your vehicle even when lighting conditions are limited.
What does it mean that the Baseus Super Energy Max is a battery starter?
A jump starter is used to start a vehicle when its battery is depleted or weak. If the battery, for example, of the car does not have enough power to start the engine, the jump starter provides the necessary energy to start it.
Therefore, it cannot be used as a battery charger as it has only a starting function.

Safety Tip
Before attempting to start a car, check that:
The battery has no leakage or damage, if it does seek help from a specialized technician.
Ensure that the jump starter is compatible with the type and power of the battery.
Clothes and metal objects, such as jewelry, are kept away from the battery.
There are no fire sources nearby, such as a cigarette.
Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can

This is the largest of the Baseus jump starters. I got it for my 2L diesel because, as they say, you can never have too much power. It charges via USB-C and has 2 USB-A outputs like a power bank. For its price, they could have included a carrying case, so I deduct one star.
Tested on a Toyota Starlet that had been left with the lights on for 4 days and had completely discharged. The car battery was new, so there was no issue other than it being discharged.
When connecting the fully charged jump starter, the green light (which means it is connected properly) did not turn on, and no matter how many tests we did, the dashboard lights did not turn on either. We tried the jump starter on another car that had no issues, and the green light turned on normally. Eventually, roadside assistance arrived with another jump starter and started the car immediately.
I then reconnected the Baseus to the car, and the green light turned on normally with the charged battery. I understand that it probably doesn't work with a completely dead battery.
I will try it again if I get the chance, but the one time I really needed it, it didn't work.
Restored seat ibiza 1.2 with the energy it had out of the box without any problems. It dropped by 25%. The lens it has is for crying but from nothing, something is something.
I didn't have the chance to use it even once, except for two times when I charged my phone. I even bought a case to store it and I would open it occasionally to check the battery level and if it needed to be charged. In just 10 months of owning it, it simply died. It wouldn't turn on or charge. In a quick search on the Internet, I found out that this particular model generally has some issues.
So far, I have drained it via USB...
It showed around 4-5000mAh after a full charge...
A little bit that I charged it when I received it until it was full, it charges quickly...
I will let it drain from empty to see how many mAh it will take and I will get back...
The review mainly concerns usage as a power bank...
I haven't tried starting a car yet...
I also forgot to measure it with the battery analyzer I have to see how many CCA it will give me...
I will get back with both measurements...
In charging, so far it has exceeded 10000mAh and continues...
At 10700 the charging stopped...
So someone could also say it is 11000mAh... But they labeled it 10000 reducing it down...
I will drain it again and measure CCA and I will get back...
In CCA measurement, it showed around 175 give or take... I don't know if something in the measurement method is wrong and if in practice on a car it performs better... But even so, I think 175 is okay to help a weak battery start... In completely empty, I don't know...
When I try it in practice, I will get back...
After a while, the battery doesn't seem to have much self-draining which means it holds the charge level okay when sitting...
It was tested on a 1.5d, it accelerated with the second gear without seeming to consume much energy from the starter. Very good purchase.
It has a small size, comes with all the necessary accessories, and the battery lasts for a long time.
Very good, user-friendly and effective product with sturdy construction, which I have used so far as follows:
1st use:
I started a 20-year-old car, which had not been driven for 4 months and its battery (Bosch 48Ah) was new but had only been used for a few hours (~450 km in total).
The battery was completely dead (the interior lights of the car did not turn on at all, nor did any indication on the dashboard).
The charger "woke up" the car on the first attempt (after a few turns of the ignition key) and the engine started immediately.
With this use, the indication on the charger decreased from 100% to 87%.
The ambient temperature when the charger was used was +12 degrees.
The charger then "filled up" from 87% to 100% in 35-40 minutes using a mobile phone charger (the product package does not include a wall charger).
2nd use:
In a 2007 car with a 60 Ah battery, which was drained by forgotten daytime running lights being left on for "a few" days.
The charger "woke up the battery" on the second attempt, the engine started, and the indication on the charger decreased from 100% to 66%.
I noticed that even if the charger remains fully charged and idle for more than a month, the charging indication remains (at least nominally) at 100%.
I recommend it for batteries <=60 Ah (I have tested it on those).
1st use on a polo 1200cc. Although skeptical about how a power bank can jump-start a car, I can say that it pleasantly surprised me! With a nearly empty battery, it started the car on the first try, without even needing to use the starter motor for an extended period. Simply following the instructions, as soon as the car starts, you immediately remove the charger. The box also states that it can handle up to 40 uses. We shall see!
I highly recommend it (although it's not exactly cheap), on the condition that it delivers on the promised 40 times.
Also, the very positive reviews that all Baseus chargers have played a significant role for me.
2nd use on a corolla 1400cc. With a dead battery (until it gets replaced), I needed to jump-start it 3 times without any issues, using only the first attempt and without needing to recharge the power bank again (just check if it's charged before using it).
After exactly 1 year of purchase and using 3 starts in this period, it is completely dead. It doesn't start, doesn't charge, the screen shows nothing. Dead!
