I like to pickup whatever is on sale. The battery tends to die on all of them after a good few years. As long as it has a warranty and has some good soil clamps you should be ok. ---

Even the lithium ones? Those should last years unless stored in a high heat environment. Otherwise, they must get ruined by the abusive over charging that kills most of the lead acid ones. [Previous page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/what-is-a-good-12v-battery-jump-starter/199531.md?page=1)
