This is a good handy product. Used total 4 to 5 times on my Camry and neighbors CRV and worked like a charm.

Something something about the red/green lights and being able to bypass because of dead battery...

Reviews are pretty crappy mostly for this unit.

It is on the small side for capacity. And don't expect this to be of any use if you leave it in your glove compartment, the day you need it. Temperature extremes will kill it. At -20C, it will barely turn over any engine.

Key word here is barely. It will still get it started, and that's all you need it to do to get yourself home/safe place, and then just recharge it. I would just keep the main unit in a inner coat pocket, that way it is always with you AND protected from low temps close to body heat.

Buying things you don't need is what RFD is all about.

If left in the car at -30C, I'm sure the "barely" would not even be applicable

Do as you mention and keep it in coat pocket or some place warm, and then you stand a chance of starting.
