I have a Clore JN-660 Jump Start with a female 12 volt outlet and overload protection. Will the VIAIR 85P activate the overload protection?

According to Clore's technical support (direct phone call), the 12V DC outlet on the JNC660 is protected by a 20 amp breaker. The fuse on the JNC660's lighter plug is 15 amp, therefore you should be able to do what you are asking safely. Incidentally, should the breaker on the JNC660 trip, it resets itself automatically after it cools down.

I have tried some converters. So far none of them has worked. However, I have not tried the model that you specify.

Yes, it has internal over-discharge protection provided by an internal charge circuit PCB. The same PCB that regulates the heat, light and charging.

Yes it will but will pop the breaker after a minute or so if you do not stop. It overloads the breaker after that.

No regulator needed. I had it on the Explorer for one month with no issues. If you check it with a voltmeter under no load conditions it puts out about 14V at low current. No danger of overcharge. Also no reverse discharging. Current is only flowing in one direction. Hope this helps.

The protection must be installed right after main breaker use 1 double pole 20 amp breaker. Do not use those small twin breakers at all other wise it works well I have installed several.

It may overcharge your battery though not likely.It does have a bypass diode which is only useful when connecting multiple panel in series. The diode has nothing to do with overcharge protection.You should consider adding a diode in series with the + lead to prevent leakage at night. Again this will have no effect on overcharge.It may be easier to add a charge controller.

This unit has an On-Off switch that controls power to the Clamps. This is a nice safety feature for jump starting and when the unit is in storage. We've added some images to show the switch more clearly.

Hi! I just read the little manual that came with the charger. It says the charger has Individual Maximum Timer Control for overcharge protection. By the way, I love this charger and think it works very well. Hope that helps! :)

Maybe. It will depend on if your RV battery is the right voltage. For example, mine are 6v whereas I believe the Viair requires 12v. Since I returned my Viair I do not have the instructions anymore.

i looked on the instruction booklet and it said 120 volts andshould not exceed 12 amperes. i hope this info helps. it's the only place i see the information. if not, try calling 1-800-3-conair.

It should allow your to crank over the engine a couple times. It has 200 amp nominal with 400 peak. You do not need to charge it after every jump. I did though. I recharge mine every 6 months of no use per the manufactures recommendations.

There is a battery saver sold here at Amazon that will take care of this issue i fyour outlet is not switched off. Koolatron or other 12volt appliances can use this. Cuts off drain at about 11.5 volts so you can still start the vehicle . Part # is CTC37-0142-6 ?

Hi, I think you're a little misguided about amperage. Let me try to explain. The current that a device draws is determined by the device not the supply. You can have a 12v 500 amp supply yet the device will only draw what it is designed to or needed. In your situation your Pelitier device would draw approx 7-8 amps maybe a little more when first turned on(Surge Current) regardless of how overkill your supply is. What your concern should be is the supply have enough power to drive your device and always a little extra(headroom) & this supply does indeed have that. Also always be sure to use wiring that is heavy enough to carry the load and use circuit protection as necessary. In this case it could be anywhere between 18 - 10AWG depending on length & anything else you may be powering in conjunction with the Peltier device. Take into consideration that even though this supply has built in protection, it may not trip until high currents are reached therefore consider using inline fuse protection to the peltier. Hope this helps & feel free to ask anymore questions if needed. Also use care with these types of supplies since the 120v terminals can easily be accidently touched!

Please forgive my ignorance Arthur. I purchased this to trickle charge my Optima Batteries. I am not sure if you can jump start, but you would need to have it plugged in. There is no battery in the unit. Very light.

Anything with an active ground pin should be surge protected. The ground pin on the Elago is plastic so it does not protect against surges. Don't be fooled by the TR-Adap-BK. It appears to only offer overcurrent protection since it has a fuse. No plug can offer surge protection unless the ground pin is active (i.e. metal and connected). If you are looking for true surge protection, go with the Simran SM-60 if you are traveling. The cord has a ground pin that can be used to protect any device that has a 3-prong plug. 2-prong plugs can only offer polarity if it is keyed (one pin bigger than the other). I hope this answers your question. I spend most of my time overseas. If you travel a lot, it is good to purchase an Ideal 61-164 voltage analyzer. It allows you to test any outlet before you plug up anything that you value.

Tetra 26075 Whisper Air Pump, 150. Works OK for 3 outlets. Plus my setup needed to pump air 4 feet to go up the two feet down, still works perfect

First, did you receive an instruction booklet with your Clore JNC300XL? I would suggest reading it before doing anything. Since I purchased my 'Jump and Carry' some time ago, your instructions may be different than mine. Even though all the battery status lights came on when I pushed the 'Red Battery Status Button', I still charged my unit overnight for about 10 hours. My vehicle battery had been run down from trying to start it several times the day before without having any success. The first thing I did was re-clean my battery posts and battery wire clamps that attach to the battery posts with a 'Wire Brush Battery Post and Clamp Cleaner.' I then attached and tightened the wires to my battery. After that I attached the 'Jump and Carry' to my battery. I let it sit for about 5 minutes to have some of the charge in the 'Jump and Carry' transfer into my car battery before I tried to start my vehicle. After that, I turned the key to on and waited for 30 seconds so that the fuel pump had a chance to pump gas up to the injectors. I then turned the key to start and my vehicle jumped to life. I might add that if you have a newer vehicle, you don't want to pump the gas peddle while trying to start your vehicle; if you do, you may end up flooding out the cylinders with too much gas and your car may not start, at which point you may have to wait 5 or ten minutes until the gas drains out of the cylinders before your next attempt at starting your engine.
