Anyone have a lokithor jump starter? Any reviews

Wanna get one of these but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. What would I do 2 mi in on a hike if my something happened to my dog. Have 45 lb dog, but I’m smaller/older than average. 0% chance I can carry a hurt dog 2 miles.

Anybody know of a decent dash cam that’s preferably less than 200$ even less than 100$ would be better. I’m looking for a simple setup that can just plug into the cigarette lighter and not make a project/potential problem out of hardwiring. Also in this day and age are there any that DONT connect to WiFi or clouds. I would rather have a memory card if needed as I don’t want my daily driving or conversations sitting in some random cloud. Thanks

Any experience with these? I have the beta 04, and it specs at 6, 000a jump capacity.

I tried jumping my totally dead 1989 7.3 IDI with two batteries, and it didn't give me enough juice to click the starter.

I watched project farms YouTube video and only two of the jump boxes tested could jump a diesel. But all of them were rated for less than this buture.

Just curious if anybody has experience with this before I totally give up and buy a noco. I don't want to spend that money but if spending less won't get it done then I feel like I'm throwing it away

I have seen so many posts of people jumping actually bigger motors, but I can't even get revolutions out of jump boxes on my 7.3 idi.

I just want one that works. Am I not doing this 6000 a buture right? Or is it a total piece of shit? Because my two batteries that crank this thing hard are 2,200 amp CCA.

And most people say they put two 850 CCA batteries in this truck. I'm about to give this thing away to a friend with a Nissan Versa. If that's what it is good for I'm fine doing it. I just don't want to give it away if it's actually capable of 6,000 and I'm too stupid to operate

Looking for a jump starter and am between these two models, everyone mentions the gb40, but the gbx45 is like ~$20 more. Is the gbx45 better than the gb40? Both will cover my engine size, but if I can get something a bit better for that small difference in price I will. Any thoughts?

So I have a Nissan Hardbody single cab, so I have very limited space. Generally I have a tool box or canopy, but I'd rather have the majority in the cab so I don't really need to think about moving items back and forth.

I currently have this seat organizer which has been pretty good for getting items off the bottom of the cab. It's flush to the back of the cab so I don't really need to worry about anyone wanting to take anything. Kinda looking at trying to remake it though to sort everything better.

To remake it, I'd like to first try to get everything I'd want to keep in it before I work on it and decide if there is anything else I can keep in the glove box or somewhere else.

Current list of stuff that I have in the organizer:

• Jumper cables
• Tow strap
• 12V Tire inflator
• 3/8 ratchet and sockets
• Tire pressure gauge
• Hatchet
• Hi-vis vest
• Headlamp
• Gloves
• Mylar blanket

Current list of stuff that I have outside of the organizer

• First aid kit
• 4 way tire iron (Looking to get a breaker bar and a socket set)
• Jack (Mounted to the floor)
• Fire Extinguisher
• Blanket over the back of my seat

What I know I'd like to get

• Shovel (folding unless there's a good smaller sized one.
• Breaker bar and socket set
• Portable Jump starter

I was wondering if anyone had tips on what I could get to fill the things I want to get and any tips on what else I should get.

Is there a good first aid kit with meds that I can purchase and supplement? I do have the bandages etc, but I wanted to add things like a couple of tylenol, advils, benadryls. Been reading and watching some videos from professionals and I do agree that amazon/walmart kits don't have the same quality levels for meds (most of them seem to come from general pharmacies overseas).

Even ones from Medical Gear outfitters, reputable source of med kits, has meds in from other countries. North American Rescue would be my go to choice, but I could not find a med kit (mostly CATs, Gauze etc).

One other issue I am not able to figure out is QuikClot - both in powder/granules and in gauze form. Is it ok for untrained folks to use them? I had a cut on by palm, which bled slowly but without clotting and the urgent care folks said these would take a long time to clot.

what do you folks do for meds and clotting needs?

I had run over a big stone and broke my exhaust sleeve lose. I was lucky that thing didn't break completely but rather went lose and kept sliding. It was very hot to touch. I wore some work gloves and could slide it to cover the joint. Now I realized that I needed something that actually could hold the hanging end of catalytic converter, had I not been able to slide that thing back.

What would be your suggestions to tackle or had you ever experienced such situations? Zip ties are out of question because of the heat. Same for para cords too. What do you guya use to tie thw hot parts of thw vehivle, if you have to?

Edit: Thanks for the ideas. I never knew steel zip ties are exiated until today. I will keep a few of them along with the hose clamps. I think hose claps would work in many other situations also

New Qs: I see I am looking for many metal tools/niftys in the cars all the time. Which type of storage you all use for your emergency stuffs in car? I hate the rattle noise from dangling tools. All those plastic tool boxes make me concentrate on my trunk than on the road while driving

I've searched the sub for ideas, maybe I'm just not searching the right terms, any guidance/ideas appreciated.

Basically I've got a smaller SUV that is always parked in a public parking lot on a college campus. Cars get broken into on the regular. My car has absolutely nothing stored in it and it's easy to see through the windows that the car is empty, so it doesn't really attract thieves. Not yet anyway, knock on wood.

I'd like to put some water, eflares, tire inflator, etc, etc in there but that seems like I'm going to invite break-ins. I've searched the sub and lots of people put hard cases in the cars and strap them down, lots of variations on this. But a big fancy case in the car is for sure going to get someone going through the window.

What I'm wondering is if there's ever been a discussion of disguising supplies in the car. A gym bag seems like a poor disguise, people smash cars and take those all the time.

But what about a big black garbage bag? Or a case with fast-food bags pasted to it to make it look like a heap of fast-food detritus?

Has anyone had good ideas along these lines?

Edit : ‘carbage’ is the concept I was thinking off and there’s a whole subreddit for it. I’ll probably make a faux carbage pile from random junk glued to a dropcloth and throw that over the goods.

Alternatively, if I want it to look nicer, I’ll order another floor mat for the cargo area same color as the interior and build a false floor from 1/2” plywood about 6” high, which should hide a bunch of stuff. With the floor mat on top it’ll look stock.

For expedience, I’ll see if I can get some empty kitty litter pails from a neighbor with cats and throw my preps in there until I can do carbage or false floor.

Thanks everyone!

I live in Louisiana so, my kit is minimal. I have jumper cables, tow rope, a sleeping bag and a blanket in case I can't move or leave my vehicle.

What are some things I'm leaving out that are absolutely essential for going to Independence Missouri during deep winter?

Space is minimal because I'm taking gear for a field training exercise

Hey all, I'm just finally getting around to thinking about some EDC stuff in my car. I have a 2019 Dodge Durango and I was thinking about trying to "make" some space. In the cargo area I've got these two big windows that aren't used much. They don't open. I was looking specifically at the driver-side window as I use the passenger side for blind spot checks but I can't really see the driver-side at all from the wheel.

So I was thinking about how I could enclose that interior space and store stuff there. Has anyone done this? I could see some sort of elastic mesh or something but I'd like something a little "better".

Two pics: The exterior shows the exterior (duh) view of the rear window. The interior shows the passenger-side window in the cargo area and the fascia around it.

I’d like to have a decently large backup water container for my trunk, it’s going to be sitting there and I don’t want to use plastic because I’ve heard it can seep into the water after while. Does anyone know any good alternatives?

Hey guys. I’m looking to make an IFAK for my vehicle. I been looking at bags and gunna go with the Vanquest FATPack Pro Large to store everything. What do you guys recommend and are the most important medical items to have with me in my vehicle. I appreciate any input.

I just purchased a NOCO GB50 jump box. I just threw it under the front seat. Then I started to think about that in the heat of a car in the summer. Are these designed to take the interior heat of a closed car in summer?

Looking to get me a new portable air compressor what all do you guys carry and which one do you like the best?

I do a mix of things like inflating tires, powering small air tools, and occasionally working on projects at home.

I’m looking for something that’s reliable, easy to transport, and has good power for everyday use. What models do you all carry, and what features do you find most useful?

Currently I am considering these options:

• WOLFBOX Portable Tire Inflator
• DEWALT 20V MAX Tire Inflator
• Milwaukee M18 18V Tire Inflator

If you have any horror stories or great experiences with specific brands, I’d love to hear those too! Thanks in advance for your help!

SUV with Storage Compartments? Or aftermarket/custom options?

I'm looking for an SUV with storage compartments, bench seats, and seats that fold flush.

What about aftermarket/custom builds, what are my options? I've seen Rough Country drawers on a Silverado.

I was looking at Tahoes and Yukons. Ended up pulling the trigger on a 2018 Tahoe Premier...now I'm thinking about the Yukons. They had a storage compartment in the rear. It was dinky, but at least I could put jumper cables, some tools and emergency kit.

I'm transitioning from a 2003 Silverado lol. I had tools, emergency kit, summer swimming stuff and go-bags stashed under the rear bench seat.

That's another thing! There's really no SUVs with bench seats anymore?

So basically looking for an SUV with storage compartments, bench seats, and seats that fold flush.

I have a baby and a toddler and I'm trying to build emergency bags for them

Hello folks, just got myself a decent sized duffle bag with the intention of using it in my car boot to keep preps/SHTF bag with my if I get caught in some BS whilst driving, any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

Looking for a better way to tie down the tool box. It’s a lease so not looking to drill into the bed etc.
