Best portable jump pack?

Looking for suggestions on portable jump packs. We spent the past few days in the mtns of NC, and even though I replaced my battery this year, in the below freezing temps my truck started but not as easily as I thought it should.  Where we stay isn't super populated and I was thinking about getting a portable jump pack just in case. My truck is the biggest engine we have in a Toyota 4.7 V8, with a current battery of 725 CCA. So, I'm also curious what size we jump pack we need?

Thanks 

I have one of these in both of my vehicles. I cranks everything I own. 

I have the AUTO-VOX jump starter power bank. Used it 3 times yesterday and many other times. Works great. Charges cell phones as well. Bought a couple as gifts for the kids to keep in their cars. 

I suspect that for a given capacity they're all pretty much the same.  I'd look for one with the most amps.

I have a Halo Ultimate 2.0 that I keep in my vehicle, but I've never had to jump anything with it. It mostly gets used for the air compressor, or to recharge other devices a couple of times.

I'm confident there are other jump packs that are better, but it seems decent enough to do the job, and the other functions are nice to have.

Buy once cry once.   This thing has been a beast. Used it to start my friends diesel truck a couple mornings ago with ease.  Says it has 2500A. Not sure I believe that but it is the most powerful one I have ever owned.  It also seems tough. It gets tossed from car trunk to car trunk with out much care. 
 

I highly recommend but it is a bit pricey at over $200. But I have gone though several cheep ones that were gifts or I got when traveling.

I recently went to the Hulkman and am very happy with it. Two things to consider: 

1. Most jump packs these days include a "safety" feature in the cables that only allow you to try to start a car once. That means you have to break the connection by removing the clamps before trying again. Not a big deal, unless you are alone and have to keep jumping out of the car and running around to the hood over and over. I don't think anyone sells a jumper wihout this feature sadly. 

2. Most modern jumpers will not jump a 100% drained battery without engaging a special mode. On the Hulkman, you have to hold a button for a few seconds IIRC. Point is, learn how to do this or write it on the back of the pack because you will need to do it someday and wont remember how. 

I got a Nexpow 1500A one off Amazon a while back for under $40.  Used it numerous times and it works great

I've used the Hulkman above and NoCo Boost X GBX45, and they both worked as advertised, and started my 3.0TDi with ease in -10°f temps. I have a feeling the NoCo will be the longer-lived product, and from the quality of their other products I'd say the price premium is worth it. 

My wife has a gooloo for a smaller displacement engines and it works well, I've used it many times.

That's good to hear.  I have the NoCo GB50 ('1500A').  I haven't had to use it but my 2019 VW has a the original battery and it's been 10F in the morning the past few days, so I've been keeping it handy.  

Slightly off-topic, I bought a NOCO battery for my Ducati one winter.  It was pretty slick, in that it came with spacers that you could stack on the bottom to make it fit exactly in the battery box.  Unfortunately, it seems no-one at NOCO had ever seen the terminals on a motorcycle battery and the only way to make it usable would have been to hack up the factory connections so I returned it.

My NoCo pack is great. I've had some cheap ones that have also worked, but the NoCo is very good. 

Noco, hands down.  If you want portability.

I have the JnC660 that has NEVER let me down, but it's not as portable

I've got the harbor freight cheap one, used to be something like $70 and has started everything I've needed to run including my 8.1 suburban, though that one wasn't totally flat. Also have an Antigravity pack that is pretty nice, but it's much larger and more expensive.

+1 on the NoCo bandwagon. Honestly one of my favorite things about them is every WalMart has them so when I inevitably lose or forget one, I can just pick another one up then I have another set of cables with the same connector or another box that fits the cables I managed to not lose.

I have this one from Harbor Freight. Needed one "right now" a couple/few years ago and that's what was on the shelf. It hasn't let me down and has been used plenty. https://www.harborfreight.com/630-peak-amp-portable-car-battery-jump-starter-and-power-pack-58979.html

If I were shopping now, I'd watch this video. 

How often do you need to recharge them when they are not being used  and laying in the trunk ?

I have not had very good luck with the USB  battery power supplies  after letting them sit . and wonder if Jump Packs need special care .

I thought you meant Jet Pack.

I forgot to mention that my wife actually did a lot of research before buying the gooloo. Looks like that guys testing agrees.

I have the noco Gb70. It'll jump my jeep from stone dead with a bad battery, multiple times from one charge. It's a beast.

I gave my kids each one of those for Christmas. I think I have the 20 and it's done the job every time I've needed it

I'll tell you what NOT to buy...AntiGravity.

Used mine a bunch, especially to run a small air compressor -- but also as a jump box.

Wasn't that old and one day just refused to accept a charge.

Looking at NoCo now since that's what I replaced my failed AntiGravity starter battery with.

I bought several of the HF Viking jump packs at once, and none has ever started any car for me.

I had a lithium jump pack from (I think) Antigravity. Not Amazon alphabet soup anyhow. Kept it in the car, it swelled up in the heat. I don't think ever got to use it. 

My jump pack is an Optima yellow top and a pair or jumper cables in a canvas bag.
