Automotive : Black & Decker BB7B Simple Start 12-Volt Battery Booster |
- This is really a brickMy car battery was dead and I try the booster option in the brick. It did nothing but beeping for 15 minutes. Thanks to our good friends (AAA) who came on my request and helped me. This product is useless. After this incident, I tried charging the unit. The unit keeps beeping and does not charge anymore. No good customer service to resolve my problem. I recommend you my friends not to buy this red & black brick.

- JUNKI TRYIED TO USE THIS BOOSTER 5-6 DIFFERENT TIMES AND GOT NOWHERE ON A CAR THAT JUST SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY UNTIL MY DAUGHTER LEARNS TO DRIVE A STICK. NEVER DID I GET THIS BOOSTER TO JUMP START THE CAR. I BOUGHT ONE MADE BY DURACELL, EASYIER TO USE AND STARTED THE CAR FIRST SHOT. I AM HOPING THAT THE ONE FROM BLACK AND DECKER WILL START MY ATV IF NEEDED. THE BLACK AND DECKER WOULD ALWAYS TRY TO CHARGE OFF OF MY DEAD BATTERY WHEN I TURNED IN ON. THEN I WOULD PUSH THE CHARGE BUTTON AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD SOUND AN ALARM SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT. THE DURACELL YOU JUST SLIDE A SWITCH AND 10 MIN LATER YOU START YOUR CAR

- Does not chargeMine also would not charge and beeped constantly. It is a completely unreliable product and I do not recommend buying it, especially because you really need it to work when you do need it! I am really disappointed that black and decker made something so horribly. It really ruined their reputation for me.

- So far has worked every timeI bought this for my husband for Christmas a couple of years ago. His car doesn't ding at you when you leave the lights on, so he has run the battery dead many, many times. So far, every time he has needed to use this it has worked great. It takes usually about 10-15 minutes to recharge his battery before he attempts to start it. The best thing about this product is that you don't have to get out of your car to recharge your battery. This has been great as he works in an area of our city that is a little scary, especially after dark.
It is worth noting that NOT ALL CARS CAN BE RECHARGED THROUGH YOUR CIGARETTE LIGHTER. I wonder if that is why this product has gotten so many poor reviews. Before you buy this, make sure that your car/vehicle can be recharged in this manner.
And make sure you recharge it in your house after every use, or it may not work the next time.

- Battery boosterSorry to say I didn't like this product. I tried several times to jump start (Or charge) a car battery and it failed all the time. I have seen this in stores as "Closeouts ETC.) I think everybody is getting rid of them. I'm keeping it for a external battery supply for a GPS unit in an airplane otherwise I would have tossed it. That's about all it's good for. Save your money and buy a regular charger or trickle charger and leave it on your car overnight and it will start in the morning, but not this puppy.
