Amazon.com Product Description
The Black & Decker Electromate 400 Portable Power Station/Jump-Starter/Compressor has 450 instant amps to start your car in the unlikely event that your battery goes dead. You can never count on finding someone to jump-start your car, even if you have a set of jumper cables. The Power Station/Jump-Starter/Compressor will alleviate this problem by giving you the power you need to do it yourself.

When your car loses power, the Electromate 400 has enough power to both jump-start your vehicle and run emergency appliances such as portable lights, radios, cell phones, and small tools. The Electromate 400 is also ideal for non-emergency situations like tailgating parties, camping, power outages, and any other situation where no wall outlet is available. The two built-in 120-volt AC outlets allow more than one appliance to be operated at once.
Inflates Tires, Sports Equipment, and More
There's also a built-in air compressor that allows you to inflate bicycle tires, sports equipment, and pool toys, but this compressor is also powerful enough to pump up the tires on your vehicle.
Other Features
The Electromate 400 also comes equipped with a built-in, ultra-bright LED work light for emergency roadside assistance and an exclusive, built-in 120-volt AC charger that plugs into any household outlet. Other features include a keyless on/off power safety switch, reverse hook-up warning alarm in case the jump-start cables are attached to the wrong terminals, vehicle alternator voltage check, and LED battery status indicator.
Rechargeable
This unit recharges easily from any household AC outlet or DC automobile cigarette-plug style outlet, so that it will be ready the next time you need it.
Warranty
Black & Decker offers a full 2-year warranty.
What's in the box
The Electromate 400 unit, a 12 volt charger, heavy-duty cables and clamps, and an adapter nozzle set.
Customer Reviews
Does the job....
This works very easily and does its job. Haven't tried the tire pump yet. Hope not to have to use it. Just remember to recharge this every 60 days so it will still work.
Reliable jump starter
I got this for Christmas and keep it in my car at all times. As a female I like to be safe and know I can easily and independently jump my car if my battery dies any time- day or night. I have a bad habit of leaving my lights on when I park on rainy days. I have been stranded and needed to use this device several times so far and it came through every time. It even jumped my car several times without being recharged which was amazing! Needless to say I had to replace my car battery (which was overdue anyway). But the minute it takes to hook this up and put it back in the trunk sure beats the hour waiting for AAA. You do need an extension cord to recharge it though- a minor sacrifice. I also know I'll have this handy device for when the power goes out in my apartment so I can charge my cell phone or keep my food from spoiling.
Power Packed
I upgraded to the Black and Decker because I needed more CCA's to jumpstart my friends cars. The Mighty Mite at 250 CCA's was too small for a drained battery. But 2 weeks after I bought the Black & Decker unit I used it to jumpstart an 07 Maxima that had its lights left on all morning. No problem, the 450 CCA's got it started within 2-3 seconds! I like the easy to read attached instructions, good AC power at 400 watts sustained, and good CCA's. It's a lot of value for the money.
