The iTechWorld JS80 Jump Starter Portable Lithium Power Pack is great as an emergency power supply to start a big diesel 4x4. But can it also be used to run your camping fridge. I put the Jump Starter to the test to run my 40 litre Engel Fridge.

My focus is photography street, nature, landscape, people and adventure travel. A few animals also sneak in from time to time. Property investment and business also get covered to complement the theme of having time and money to pursue your passions, like mine, in photography and adventure travel, 4WD, motorcycle and trekking/hiking, connecting with nature and culture.
I have used my JS80 to run my elcheapo Kings 32L fridge, it worked well for about 4-5 hours. I then had the same issue you had, where as soon as the poŵer went off, the fridge immediately began to warm up. So, that's not much chop for overnight as your milk would be off before breakfast.
True, well at least the JS80 is an emergency back up for a few hours. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@Adventure8 Im thinking of getting a larger power pack from Itech is your Adventure8 coupon still valid?
@@nigelmaxwell5751 Yes, in most cases you will get an extra discount using the Adventure8 code. Happy shopping.
Very helpful thanks
Cheers
Are the cells Lithium Ion? Or Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4)? The latter are intrinsically safe. Virtually no chance of fires when something goes wrong.
What can go wrong? Earlier this year the Li-Ion battery in my laptop suddenly started to swell up and was on the edge of bursting out in flames. In the outback, this is now what you want. LiFePO does not have this problem.
The JS80 jump starter is a Lithium Ion battery. The 1300W power station is a LiFeP04 battery. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of Lithium batteries.
Battery capacities (energy contents) are expressed in Watt-Hours. Power demands are expressed in Watts.
The time a device can run on a battery are the capacity (Wh, energy) divided by the demands (W). Take care to be clear about this. WattHours and Watts must be distinguished between.
Thanks
Any link for this cable? 12v to dc male. Hard to find...
There is a cable which comes with the JS80 which provides a 12VDC (cigarette lighter type) female plug. The Engel fridge included 12VDC cable (cigarette lighter type) male plug can then be used. Does that answer your question?
I have this device, it won't run a fridge for very long 😂
Yes that's true. The JS80 capacity is limited because of its size. Good as an backup power for the fridge in addition to its main purpose of jump starting your car.
