Thanks for showing where to charge I found mine in the same location and didn’t know it as mine didn’t come with directions and found out it was a regular plug so saved me there
I got one last other day brand new for 50 bucks. And even has an ac power to connect anything. Is working good so far. The tire compressor is not precise but obviously u have to eye ball ur tire also and use a separate air pressure gato to make shure it is good . Other than that is a great machine to have
Great video! Own one and have never used the compressor, but just wanted to know if the compressor would add the psi shown on screen or actually read and stop at the required tire psi to not overfill. Straight to the point, thank you!
How you turn it off ''is you get the biggest sledgehammer you can find and then proceed to hit it about 8 times as hard as you can and if that doesn't work get gallon of petrol and be careful stand well back and throw a lit match at it and this should shut it of
Before you start using any product, you must read the manual and system operations so you are better informed. Dos and Don’t about the product is very critical. For example, over using the air compressor could cause a fire. “Kites rise highest against the wind, not with it”. - Sir Winston Churchill
I had someone leave this exact model in the rain and it shorted it out somewhere. They wanted to throw it away. I tried to convince them to at least try and use the warranty, but he just gave it to me. I’m still troubleshooting it
A friend of mine gave me his recently. I've never used one before. Sadly it doesn't have a charger. Is there a way to charge it without it? Also I was thinking of using this for camping since it be great to have a power source for my devices. Does it really take that long to charge a phone or could it be the cable?
What kind of space ship is this with no battery!!! Thanks for actually showing how to use the thing. I wish I didn’t take my battery out of my car and up to my apartment.. I was thinking I was going to charge the battery inside.. I don’t think I’m gonna do it now that I read in the manual (never connect directly to the negative terminal or other moving part) makes me a little nervous to. I think I’ll just get a reg charger to charge it
Can a power tool be used using this power supply? To be specific, a 5.5 amp electric planar that will be used to grind down a door.. The power supply will be used in lieu of running 100 feet of extension cord cable.
@@dclarke8872 You don’t turn it off. It is in “off” mode when it’s not charging anything. However, all batteries will discharge over time. This one has to be charged once a month if doing nothing.
I recently purchased this and the instructions said to charge the battery for 40 hours when you purchase it…..this may be a simple question but I can’t figure out how to charge it. Can you explain how or provide a video perhaps would really help me! 😊
Great video. My CAT power station is exactly the same but my compressor isn’t working. I’ve contacted the seller and manufacturer and no one will help me. Any ideas would be really appreciated?
I just bought one of these and really like it. Question- how do you turn it off? I don't see it anywhere in the manual and the power button doesn't do it, thanks.
Yes I have been trying to completely power it down and the rotating switch is not doing it. That blue light has been on and I’m just trying to power it down completely
any good for camping do they have 12v charge points aswell as usb and if charging 2 tablets and a keeping a portable fridge plugged in howxlong will it last thanks
It's sprinter van, so battery is underneath the seat so they factory fitted a jumper point (red) for ground we can use any metal attached to the chesay
Hi! Anybody knows if I can charge a riding lawn mower battery with this? (I know it can jump start, but actually I am asking if it is able to charge it) thanks!
We just bought one about one month ago and have only used it once. I just plugged it in and the battery icon just keeps blinking. What am I doing wrong?
I have the same power station. I was inflating my car tyres and it stop on half way. Do I have to charge the station to full battery or is there any other fault?
Ive got one of these and its been brill up untill my starter motor and alternator went on 2.4 2010 transit van i replaced both but when i hooked up the cat jump pack it doesnt seem to push enough current through to start it which i cant understand as ive never had a problem with it before and its also started my td5, my van starts fine van to van with jump leads just not with the jump pack and im not slating the product because like i said its been absolutely brilliant and it is great value for money but i just cant understand why its struggling now any advice from a professional of this product would be really appreciated
@@PLIDD i eventually got to the bottom of it dual batterys one was done so it dragged the other one with it 2 new batterys later and wallah, expensive fix tho i worked backwards like a tit and should of just checked them properly aswell first anyway thanks for the reply.
I just got on of these at Costco, the device is not reading the pressure when connected to the tire when I press the air button. It alternately shows the pressure setting I set and 0 PSI. Any ideas? I made sure the jump switch is in the off (vertical) position.
Has anyone had the jump starter fall through the bottom of the box and injure their foot that's what happened to me can you please make a note to me if possible thank you
HOW TO TURN OFF: Press the power button until the screen reads 12.1v. It should go off if you leave it alone. If the screen reads “AC” it won’t turn off.
When you push the power button, AC and 12.5 v are the options that appears once pressed. Push till screen says 12.5(or whatever voltage) and wait 5-10 seconds and it shuts off automatically.
I bought one. Didn't work couldn't hold a charge. Exchanged for another, same thing. Tried one last time same thing! But also air compresser didn't work.
A video that actually shows the channel using a jumpstarter instead of just talking about it.
Wild how so many have this product and don't show that
Thanks for telling me this. Just watched a bunch of crap where no one showed how to use it.

No its 12V only

My question is can I plug in an extension cord? Would that be too much power?
Im not sure about it because on this UK model no power output
Yeah, so how do you turn the dang thing off? I can't find my manual.
Hold the power button on until unit turns off .
That's why I'm here! I think it turns off on its own only if it's displaying the DC not AC

Hi there. I want to know some people complain the air compressor shuts off automatically. Is that a defect or the safety feature for 5 mins?
Safety reasons
To avoid overheating
@@PLIDD thank you for your reply. I'm glad it has that safety feature although some don't appreciate it
Mine does not emit air to inflate anymore . Any similar issues out there ?
Yes mine starts up for one second and then stops. I can’t get mine to work either.
Select the correct PSI
Thanks this video helps me a lot
Your welcome
I have this one. Been great, but bulky and heavy. I wonder how this compares to the newer CAT Lithium Power Station PPSCL3 from Costco?
Is it ok to leave this in the car permanently on hot or cold weather, since you never know when you'll have a dead battery or low tire pressure? thx
Yes
Check battery level at least every 6 months.
Can charge a dead car battery using this generator?
No
HELLO, THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. I HAVE THAT CHARGER BUT THE AC POWER DOESN'T WORK, EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS. MIGHT IT HAVE A FUSE INSIDE? PLEASE HELP ME

After charging the booster, how long does the battery charge last? I have the same one but it only lasts a few days. Thank you
It lasts longer months
But colder weather may cause faster drain
Did you test the AC inverter? Mine doesn't work.
This is UK model so it doesn't have one
Not sure why Tyre preasure beep and light turns every 10 to 20 minutes when the unit is supposed off. ( and valve not plugged)
Earlier this year got mines at costco
👌
when i plug the charger it doesn't charge at all. Do i really need to buy an extension like yours in order for it to charge ?
no need an extension to charge it.
must be falty check with your seller or CAT
hola puedes ser un video como se apaga despues de usarlo porfa

Only usb charging available
can you inflate bike tires up to 60 psig ?
Yes you can
I purchased one & the screen just comes out blue with no icon or button noise. is it just dead or is it faulty?
Must be falty
Can I charge a battery of car with this model? Or just work for Jump a end battery?
this is a jump stater, not a charger.
You can't charge but connect and leave it for a while to start dead battery
Brilliant video. Thank you very much

Apparently not. Not powerful enough.
Jumpstarter uses high discharge so not suitable to power lawn mower
Can I trickle charge a marine battery with this unit?
Not sure.
We just bought one about one month ago and have only used it once. I just plugged it in and the battery icon just keeps blinking. What am I doing wrong?
You need to charge it
According to the booklet, you should charge it once a month
I have the same power station. I was inflating my car tyres and it stop on half way. Do I have to charge the station to full battery or is there any other fault?
Charge fully
You need to let the maximum compressor function rest every 10 minutes
This is a problem machine .compressor will die .the rubber compression ring on the piston will wear out when it heats up.
Thanks, how soon it end battery lenght of time usage 2 or 3 days camping??
Depends
2 to 3 hours a day light only lasts 3 to 4 days
Thank u !!!!

Why is he turning off the compressor manually... it's supposed to shut off at the desired set pressure...
yes it will stop at the desired number
Mine doesn't shut off automatically. gets to 0.1 under the set pressure and although continues to make a noise, doesn't actually go any further!
@@PLIDD It's supposed to, but sometimes it does not... like this guy turning it off manually ...

can you recharge the station in a vehicle while driving via a cigg plug in the truck.
It wont come with 12v dc charger, but its accepts 12v dc so yes you can charge using a aftermarket charger.

Starting your car and using the air compressor in the same time will kill the battery in the first day.
