"Run a 4-vehicle fleet of diesel pickups. This thing lives in the shop and has started batteries in -30°C weather without hesitation. Lead acid at this capacity beats lithium in real winter."

"Farm use. Starts the big diesel tractor, the combine header, and the backup generator when they sit all winter. Nothing else I've tried could do all three reliably."

"Used it in my shop for eight years. The clamps and cables still look new. Clore builds these things like tanks."

Heavy and bulky for passenger car use
18 lbs is manageable for a garage or truck bed, but unwieldy in a compact car trunk alongside other gear. Lithium alternatives that fit in a jacket pocket have made the JNC660's footprint feel outdated for everyday carry.

Lead-acid batteries self-discharge and sulfate if left uncharged for extended periods. Multiple users report capacity loss after storing the unit for a season without a maintenance charge cycle.

At $150, buyers occasionally expect the multi-function capabilities of similarly priced NOCO units (USB charging, air compressor option). The JNC660 is a single-purpose tool—extraordinary at that purpose, but only that purpose.
Source: Amazon.ca reviewerThe Clore JNC660 is the right jump starter for commercial operators, farmers, fleet managers, and anyone who regularly starts large diesel engines or works in a shop. Its 1700 peak amps and commercial-grade cables make it the most capable consumer jump starter for heavy-duty applications. Passenger car owners or commuters who want something that lives in the glovebox should look at NOCO's GB40 or GB70 instead—they deliver equivalent capability for most personal vehicles at a fraction of the weight.
