I know you guys want a case study video too for this week. I'll be uploading one later today or tomorrow on a Dodge Durango with a A/C problem. One that is NOT a leak! My son Beau (11) was really excited to be camera man and wanted this uploaded weeks ago! Give Beau some love okay? He will be reading your comments. (well, not really, he is dyslexic) I'll be reading him your comments.
Great Job Beau !, Keep Asking questions and following direction You Did Great Bud !, I've seen good reviews and read good things about the NOCO branded jump packs and I think I'll be in the market for one of this caliber, Appreciate the videos and sorry to see the paid episodes are going away, Really cuts into being able to run and support the channel when you loose that kinda funding, Keep up the great work 3+ year Tech at a corporate chain store and the Diagnostic starting points really come in handy- Real techs will understand what I mean , Have a good one Paul !.
Kudos two2 the camera man. I have some cixelsyd traits sometimes too. Sometimes the dog is facing east and sometimes west, so is it a b or a d. Repetition was key four4 me and we also have so many rules in the English language. If you have more than one ox, you have a couple of oxen but it you have more than one box it is not a couple of boxen it's a couple of boxes.
Also I am a sight learner, I do better when I see something verses hearing it and then I take notes and reinforce what I learn. Great video Danner family.
Nice job Beau! Nice involving your son in your work SD. Thanks for the review, I have been wanting one of these.
Hi Dan, very short question! Is this a normal MAF reading, or is my car not starting because the reading is completely out of whack? Logically, should be 3g/s as car idles on 5g/s. Max RPM max WOT is 170 instead of 220, misfires consistently, steady highway speeds and throttle reads every 200ms anything between 60 and 75g/s.

Beau FTW! Great job.
So who in hell would give this video a thumbs down?? Used out NOCO today to start a motorhome. Ten cylinder, well below freezing for days-- started right up. Amazing device. Good video.
Thanks for the update. I purchased 3 of these-one for myself and two for family members in my household. So far I've used it twice on a truck similar to yours and it started it up with no effort on both occassions. This is a definite must-have for anyone who drives.
I bought this about the same time you introduced me to it 2 years ago. This thing is great. My 2001 5.3L Tahoe wouldn't start one day, and this started it right away, that's nice but this is the better part - I was needing to go to 5 appointments that day without any breaks to be able to replace the battery. Since the battery was not holding a charge even after driving, I then had to use the NOCO *five* more times that day in order to restart the truck , without recharging it. No problem at all, unbelievable.
i own a gb40 which is smaller than this model
i've used it to start a 3L diesel which ran out of fuel
had to crank and pump more than 20 times to get it to start
it held for about 15 long cranks before it ran out
so the larger one won't be a problem starting engines many times
steven yau yes I got the GB70 which was $200. I figured I would spend the extra hundred for twice the amps, just to have something that would never let me down
That was you’re altanator for sure scott
@@nightmaremike1092 No it was not his alternator. If it was his alternator, the vehicle wouldnt run at all.
I love Beau's enthusiasm and curiosity! Keep it up, dude! :D
Two years later- Nice! Thanks for taking the time to make this quick follow-up.
I just purchased one can’t wait to use it… I like how you was directing your camera man. He really loves his dad… even asking questions that someone else might be thinking about… Awesome❤
Good morning Paul. Always happy to hear the notification and see a scanner danner vid. Makes my day.
Short and sweet review! Thanks! I got about 45 mins left to decide for Amazon Prime days and I think this just made me pull the trigger 👍
Great job Beau! Excellent question too on hooking up the cables. My wife just see someone catch a car on fire because they hooked up the jumper cables backwards. Nice job Paul! Experiences like last a lifetime with our children.
Many thanks for the follow up review gentlemen!
Great video dude! Beau you did a fantastic job with the camera! I can see your dad using you all the time now! You had good focus on the subject of the video and weren't shaking it around so it was easy to watch. Here in Aus, I haven't seen that Noco, but I would definitely love that for those times you need a quick jump. Top stuff SD team!
Congrats to father & son, great!!! THANKS BEAU, THANKS PAUL
Thanks for the video guys! I remember that review when you first received that.
Great job man and your son did a nice job also. He’s learning from a great teacher in dad. I love it. Dad and son time and reaching him the ropes. I’m ordering this tool today. 👌🏾
Great job Beau. Looking forward to more.
I'm glad the kid asked the question regarding where to clip the cables as that was the most important part of the demo - not the father's face!
I bought one yesterday because of you’re video thank you
Considering they still sell the GB70, I'd say it's a winner. I just bought one today, and am giving my smaller Projecta brand jump start unit to my wife for her car.
I think I got 4 years out of mine and I always left it in my truck so it would see single digit temps up to maybe 120+ in the summer with the windows up?
This is a must have, more people should know about this. Great review man!
Well done Beau! You did a great job of helping your Dad make this video and it came out great. Was hoping to get a shot of Mrs. ScannerDanner. lol Maybe next time her car won't start she'll sneak in the frame! lol Thanks Paul!
Nice to know. Just bought one. Thanks for the video.
Cameraman Beau! Cool to see this become a family enterprise. He did great on his first vid! :)
A couple years ago I picked up a couple Rockford Pocket Power 2.0 units for my wife and I. Been amazed by them. Fired up a stone dead .7v battery in a older Volvo 940 wagon, and got my neighbor's dead plow truck running with it. Barely bigger than a couple iPhones too! Pretty neat.
Sure beats the old 20 lb. jump packs. I keep one in each vehicle now.
Great job to you both on the video! 👍
Nice job Beau! Keep up the good work! Tell your dad he did ok too.
God bless you and your son. Keep teaching him. Excellent father. :)
bought this model yesterday noco gp70 best one out there if CAA uses it that speaks for its self
Thanks for the update! Nice to see the battery hasn't died or exploded in 2 years.
Yeah the GB40 could start this engine but if it didn't start right away there simply is not enough reserve for multiple tries.
For true diagnostic reserve capacity you need the GB150. I bet noco would send you one to compare...
Got a good little partner there!
I’m sold! I’ll be returning my GB40 for the GB70 in the morning.
Good camera work wee man 👍 Great honest video defo going to pop just one now 👍
Good to see the GB70 is still working after 2years, geez time flew by as i remember that review.Hey Beau good helping there young lad..
I bought two, one for mine and one for the wife's car. They both started to swell and balloon the bottom black chassis around the 2.5 year mark. Warranty on both is only 12 months. I learned that generally speaking lithium batteries don't like being stored at 100% capacity for long period of time, and on average will fail after 2-3 years even if never used.
Shocking results Mr. Danner and son! haha
lol
This kind of long followup is essential for any proper review. It's nice to see it held a charge! I get so frustrated with battery operated devices, too many of them end up in the land fill because replacement batteries are more expensive than buying a whole new unit. New lithium batteries seem to be better than what we had in the past.
agree, I never really liked my first one on this and haven't done any product reviews since, other than my Snap-on ratchets. This follow up helps.
Very nice cinematography 💪
When I started learning about electricity it was when I found some jeweled indicator lights in my dad's repair briefcase and wanted to hook them up, he taught me about electricity flow and we hooked them up. I later burned my fingers shorting out a battery and burning up a wire, but I kept at it, haha
Good job Beau! I'm buying one.
Very smart kid GOD bless him if that was me I put the red on black and they black on red
Technically you'd still be fine, It's got a built in safety just in case...
Paul you got what sounds like cam phaser knock on that beauty. That would be an awesome repair to do with your class.
Great job!
Good job guys good to hear Beau remember when you would go with your dad on a repair job you should hang with dad more learn from the man!
I was disappointed you didn't show Beau. Next to my grandsons (not biased), he is the cutest or handsomest little boy around.
Done deal! I like it and Beau...you did good buddy!
Great camera work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good camera man there, top work :)
Nice to involve your younger kid, and funny, that you suddenly realize (after his question) to check if positive is really the positive (haha) but you explained, red cover gives a indication op the + pole.
Thanks. Nice job. No BS...it just works
Very helpful thank you
Nice dad smart son!
thank for review, I was just wondering what if 2 years or 3 years not being used, this gives me hope not wast my money...
today my gb70 started the car in a few seconds. great
Great cameraman!
I own the gb70 it's a great product
Thank you for your video. I think it was done well. You showed us two failed starts. Then the jump. I don’t doubt this battery is good. But like a Smartphone lithium battery or a laptop lithium battery, I’m concerned this NOCO jumper will be useless after, say, 4 years. Then what do we do? It’s like burning $200 in cash after 4 years of it sitting around. Maybe you use it w couple times in 4 years or none at all. Would be nice if the internal battery could be replaced.
Great product, but there are two things in which it can be improved: the cables could be a bit longer, and the L.E.D. light is at the opposite end from the working end, meaning at night you are struggling to get good light to the battery connections!
Yep, good call on the light placement. The longer cables would be appreciated by Volkswagen folk.
Nice communication with son :)
Thanks
Thumbs up for Beau.
Hey Beau! Way to go, dude. Excellent camera work and good questions for pops there.
Paul - what was that air hammer sound after the truck failed to start??
Keep smiling. You da man
Mario Dalla Riva - that sound was solenoid clicking. When the voltage is so low from a drained battery it can't keep the solenoid engaged. It releases as the voltage tanks then reengages rapidly making the clicking sound. But, don't just assume your battery is dead. A bad ground or corroded cable will reduce the juice to the starter causing the same sound. A jump or boost can overcome those conditions and start,causing you to ass-ume its just a bad battery.
^^^^^what he said
Thanks Paul & Paul 👍🏻
I was grabbing for my smacking stick to flail the key turner with when they held it chattering :))
I just got mine for christmas "you stay focused while we are talking" yes dad, you mixed it up at the end: when you cut the wires, you have to disconnect the negativ first ;)
Hi my brother
Gonna buy one Paul
Can't wait to join SDP on the scanner danner website - when will all of the videos be moved over from youtube?
To the point excellent
check the year on this upload to determine life expectancy. This NOCO is now dead. I'd say the beginning of 2021 it was pretty much done. You could get maybe one quick jump from it before it was dead. Just some additional information for you guys.
@@ScannerDanner call them and see If they honor the warranty..and let us know what they did...mention your review on UA-cam to them to help the situation.
@@polaris700efitwin 3-4 years isn't bad I guess, especially when i always left it in my truck (extreme heat and cold)
Thanks!
@@ScannerDanner the older booster packs if you don't leave them charging full time they die within a year. With lithium charge it then unplug right away then maintain once a month top off if need be .
Extreme heat or cold kills any battery that why some manufacturers put the battery under seat far from engine bay heat etc but then that's another story lol
I just bought one today. I'm trying to figure out what made the battery go dead. 3 different days in the morning and car jump start wouldn't work. Got new battery so far so good but I did unhook my 2nd battery for my 2 amps.. trying to troubleshoot why...
Cool.
same experience here with a NOCO GB70
Mine died after about 3-4 years btw
Famous 5.4 engine knock.
Can I use this on cars with a 2.0 or 3.0 liter
How long would it take to recharge after that one jump?
Hookup - Red then Black
Unhook - Black then Red
great job Beau!! I bought my noco and love it but the only thing that I don't like is that stupid clothe bag! I wish they would have a plastic case to store it in
haha
This a real life Kenny Powers right here
Ohhhh, you didn't give any details!!
Have you used it much?? Was it sitting in an unused/uncharged condition, all this time!! Was there any attempt to charge it, before this jump? These little jump packs look like Da Bomb!! Small, powerful, circuit protected, and most of all easy to use!!
Bro I KNEW I shoulda got one of these 3 years ago when the 2000 amp was like $80 now they’re like 200 before tax
Hello, is it possible to run a 12 volt car refrigerator in it
Keep the camera on me son 😂
I had bad luck with my Noco Boost had to take it back would not hold a charge FYFI don't keep it outside in your car or Garage you lose starting power Beau Good Job
Mine has been sitting in my truck for 2 yeas. Summer heat and winter cold.
I just purchased one for my M class mercedes
I carry mine all the time, best to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.. Side note I have used it a few times to start the old emergency generator....
Mine lasted about 4 years before it died
Do you leave yours in the house or in a vehicle? I ask because I wonder how long these would last in a vehicle over the course of a cold winter and hot summer. Lithium type batteries do not like weather extremes, especially heat.
It's been in my truck the entire time. So it has done well with both hot and cold. Thanks!
How do you charge that thing
It will crank the dearest battery on the planet.
Lets go bucs.. plum boro guy here. Can i plug a 120 house plug into this?
Nice! I'm in the south hills :-)
To be honest, I can't remember the house version of the charger. I always use my cigarette lighter in my truck to charge it. I'm sure you'll find that info on the link for the jump pack itself. I have it listed on my Amazon affiliate page here
www.amazon.com/shop/scannerdanner
Is this a Battery charger as well? or do they sting you again for one of their battery chargers after you paid $300 for this?
Hi Paul, what size engine is in your NAVIGATOR? Have you jumped many big diesels off It? I should state I mean UK big so like 3.0 Plus?
Thanks
Rick
His Navigator has a 5.4 liter V8.
yep, 5.4. Biggest engine I've jumped is my 6.0L truck
Mine just died. After two yrs done. Only holds 5v, never been left in the cold, regularly used it and recharged it. Noco won't do anything. Observation, when boosting a vehicle I thought the negative cable should go to the vehicle frame and not the dead battery to avoid battery explosions.
👍
😎👊🏻
I just placed my order at 50% off. And canceled a knock-off brand I had ordered on the lightning deal 2 days ago, Yay Cyber Monday.
Let me look stupid here. Does it use a battery or is it one of the types that use the energy left in the dead battery?
It's a lithium battery pack
Dam It Son!
Dad is auto electrician. Son. Dad does it matter which way round you connect the leads?
Ha ha
The noco can be really flakey if it senses extremely low voltage in the batter and it makes you use emergency mode. Other than that, they are reasonable tools I suppose.
This unit lasted about 4 years
How do you get a good product when we all get garbage I've got a Canadian Tire brands it looks exactly like the noko I bought it because I have a pt cruiser with a glitch sometimes it charges and sometimes it doesn't no rime or reason and since I don't have a mechanic I can trust I carry a booster pack with me at all times and cables my booster pack was great I thought the first time out I did 6 stops on my trip and it boosted it every time when I got home I recharged it up and the next time out the car started each time without a booste but my phone was dieing so I hooked it up to the booster pack and it charged it to 38 % and died so when I got home I charged it up again the next trip to town and the car did its thing again this time it only boosted it 5 times and each time I used it it did less and less boostes before it died until now it won't even booste it once so it's a very expensive flash light and it will still charge my phone to 38% I've got a phone charger that'll do that for 20 $ not as much light but it'll charge the phone to over 80 % so I went back to the old style booster packs and now I know why they die I might by properly charging it make it last a few years
i try to charge my new GB70 from usb 2,1A charger and in 24 hours (for now) the charge do not ending...it is normal?...thanks and regards!
This thing does take a long time to charge
Hey Paul, why the 2000 amp, wouldn't the 400 amp work just as well?
Do they make a 400 amp one?
ScannerDanner
T
Yes, they do....
0:43 sound just like me "... one more time babe" I'm always saying babe. Good video tho. Thx. Yep it gets the job done. Actually don't even need a battery lol
Heh thats great little jumber!
How many Amps that engine/motor needs for it even start cranking in firsth place?
... i would think, lot more then these little 2liter EU 4 bangers rigth? and still that little thing handled it like a boss!
Do you have it in wall charger all the time (like we have our jumber in our shop) or was that weeks old charge in it?
Anyway Thx for the update and Thanks Beau helpping filming it! looking foward to that AC Problem... Cheers have a nice weekend!
Has anyone started a 6.0 ford powerstroke with this?
Not that I mind your other son being the cameraman but what happened to the original. Is he doing OK.
He had to downsize his Workforce :-)
He is great! Just a moment for my 3rd son to get involved. Thanks!
That poor -- Focus on me! Point the camera at me while I'm talking. -- That poor kid, man.
lol I'm teaching my son to be a good camera man
