BERKUT Specialist JSL-20000 grey/black Review

Unveiling my verdict on it.Citroen c5 2.0 hdi on the street -12, could not start from two runs, did not even turn more than two revolutions.

A great way out for freezing weather or forgetfuls like me who don't turn off their headlights when they get back from the track.

The manufacturer diagnosed the device and issued a conclusion that it is working. Understanding the root causes of failure is not interesting to anyone. Has some pros: Everything is beautiful, except that this device does not fulfill its main purpose - starting the engine. With its cons: It was not possible to start either the Subaru Outback 3.0 or the Mercedes 500 GL with a dead (good) battery.

The price is a bit high. If it were not for the installment plan from aliexpress, I would not have bought it. Read a lot of reviews before buying. Berkut corresponds to the reviews. I recommend to buy. For Siberia and the Northern regions in winter, an indispensable assistant. In winter, he brought it into the apartment. Since March, it has just been in the car. Does not lose charge without use.

Convenient model, reliable. I had the experience of using the earlier model Berkut, for three years it never let me down. In winter, in the cold, I started the Chevrolet Lacetti 1.6 from the first start. I have not tried to fully charge the battery. Gave away the old one. The battery sat down on self-isolation, I bought a new one ! Remember to charge the batteries once every 3 months and read the instructions carefully. I store in a case and box

With its pros: Charging phones. Several times without recharging, I started the car with a completely dead battery. Cons: There is no adapter for my laptop. Soft case. Once, after laying through the case, the flashlight accidentally turned on, discharged to zero, but survived.

There is a feature, the hand does not rise to be called a disadvantage - like any lithium-polymer battery, it is afraid of frost. But since this ROM comes in a great case that holds it and all the accessories, the ROM has found its place in my city backpack, which I always take with me in the car. Now there is a habit not to leave a backpack in the trunk, always take it with you to warm.

I have a 13 year old Peugeot 207 with a robot, but it is already very smart and you can’t start it with 11 volts. And the 6 year old Citroen c-elysee, after several unsuccessful attempts, he went into energy saving mode and even turned off all the lights on the dashboard. The ROM has a boost button that should give voltage for 30 seconds, but 30 seconds is not enough for the robot, if there were power surges or the car sensed a dead battery, it will re-calibrate the clutch for 1.5 minutes and…

One of my best purchases, saved a lot of nerves. I start the diesel 2.0 liter Ford Mondeo, it feels like starting with a perfectly charged battery. It is important to have very good contact at the terminals. At the first attempt, I hooked it onto a rusty mass - it didn’t start, it just sparked. Cleaned up with a file, now everything is fine. From the tips - first we hook the crocodiles, then we connect the device. We take only the device itself into the heat, the cover with crocodiles and…

I took it for special occasions on the road: the UAZ battery, on a snowmobile, sits down in the cold. And I applied it unexpectedly near the house :) After Webasto work, the battery on the Toyota LC200 (engine size 4.7 l, gasoline) was discharged. Only two of the four LEDs on the booster were lit. This was enough to start the engine with ease in frost - 23 degrees. The case is not extreme, of course, but encouraging.

4 times allows you to scroll the diesel engine 2.5 liters in about 3-4 turns. More than 4 revolutions does not give - turns off. An ordinary low-power gasoline sedan will start, but this is not enough for a diesel. Although the instructions say that you can start a 4l diesel . I regret the money spent. The maximum that can come in handy is a flashlight and charging for a laptop on the road.

The manufacturer diagnosed the device and issued a conclusion that it is working. Understanding the root causes of failure is not interesting to anyone.

A good thing. You can forget about lighting from another car. I hope the battery lasts a long time, because you don’t use such devices every day. Some pros: Soundly made, case, good equipment. Powerful chargers 220v and in the cigarette lighter can be used for other purposes. Performed the main function, started the car with an empty battery. The function of a large power bank, you won’t carry it every day, but it’s suitable for a hike. Got cons: The connection of the block with terminals can…

Everything looks to be well done. There is an input and output type-c. There is an adapter for the cigarette lighter, you can connect a car vacuum cleaner without putting a regular battery. Expensive, but similar ones cost about the same. With Ali it is not clear what will come and count without a guarantee. There were doubts that the weaker model would start the 3.5L engine, as they say, I took it with a margin, given that the batteries degrade simply by themselves. Yes, you could just buy a…
