    Jumper Box Size To Start A Cummins Engine?

    How big of a jumper box would you have with you in your truck?

    I know bigger is better, but what is required to start one of these trucks?

    Thanks.

    This would be My Choice!

    I am & always have been a NOCO fan!

    Yes, it is expensive - but well worth the cost if needed a couple of times or more during the year.

    Last night, I looked at that one, but some of the reviews weren’t very good.

    Some said it takes a long time to charge, and others said it was drained after one boost.

    Still maybe the best option.

    I understand - Personally I'm not a huge review reader on Amazon (Just way too many Walking/Talking/Wankers - whom first of all don't know how to operate the tool properly or are those who are incapable of doing their own service on their autos - so I really ignore most of those.

    Anyway - I can figure where the charge time would be a bit long - It's amazing to me that something of that size (fit in your hand) can even start these HUGE/High Compression Beasts - especially @ temps below freezing!

    Personally, I would hope - I wouldn't have to need it more than once every couple of years! (Due to I have enough common sense to take care of my own 2 batteries) plugging in my NOCO Genius G750 every time she sits in the garage for more than 2 days. (Keeping both batteries fully charged 3/4 of the time).

    I own 3 NOCO Chargers - Bought my daughter one for her garage @ school (3hrs away) not one issue over the past 13yrs.

    I do actually need to get off my Lazy Arse and purchase her a NOCO Jump Starter for her car as well as the Boost X GBX155 for the JUDGE!

    Anyway - Just a suggestion!

    Good Luck in Your Search

    Good post SyN.

    My jump pack, much like my jumper cables of yesteryear, seem to be exclusively used to fix other people's problems.

    2016 Longhorn 3500, 4x4 shortbed CrewCab, Cummins HO/AISIN, 99.8% stock.
    * Hauling a 2018 Northstar Arrow-U. Scale weight 12,400 Lb.

    I can’t seem to find a better alternative than what SyN suggested.

    I wish they’d put a 12v socket on it like the other models.

    It would be nice to power an inflator.
