I like the DSR ones do you have to have an air compressor?I think the only commercial grade ones that have that are K&K.Let me know

we have a motomaster 1000 that does a good job. it does not have an air compressor though...

I can do w/out the compressor. I usually do not like dual purpose stuff , but in the boat case it would be nice, any pics or web links would be cool.

Stupid question, but other than being a "small" battery, how are these any different than just carrying around a battery?

I had one of the multi-purpose units that finally died. Cracked it open and all it needs is a new.....wait for it.....battery! It looks just like the batteries for my dirt bikes.

that's what pretty much goes bad in the cheap ones, just looking for something to fit all needs, don't you still owe me a beer?:sifone:

Pretty much thats what they are but they are self contained lighter than a battery and have built in cables

I bought the Diehard 1150 on sale for $99. It was all I needed. Has a compressor, inverter with a few outlets, 2 AC/2 12V. Also has jumper cables. Went down to the boat Saturday, battery's dead. It appears someone that happens to be just shy of 4' tall was playing with the cabin lights

The Diehard jumped my small block like a champ. Then, went on to pump up the tube (twice). When I got home, it took all of 20 minutes back to a full charge.

Nice carrying handle, easy to load and store. It's really a great portable unit. Also comes with a recharger for cig lighter outlet. I saw some bad reviews online, and as usual, paid no attention to them.

Absolutely! My buddy owes you a twelve pack for making the effort! It's been almost five years since I dragged all the way down there.....I gotta break off some time and make that trip.
