Stating mAh or Ah in terms of jump starter packs is erroneous anyway and most decent manufacturers don't express the term as it's only relevant to a continuous power source which jump start packs are not.

It was 90,000mAh which is 90AH.

Did I say anything different?

No it was oldagetraveller1, I was too lazy to multiquote

Thanks to those of you who have shared the actual models. Any more suggestions?

I bought this @ £59.99 from Amazon > Imazing Portable Car Jump Starter - 1500A Peak (Up to 8L Gas or 6L Diesel Engine) 12V Auto Battery Booster Portable Power Pack with Car Portable Batte
It was man enough to start my 3.0 diesel and still had 90+% charge.

I have one of these...

It does exactly what it says on the tin, and has started stuff far bigger than your Zaf.

Most of the Chinese eBay specials are probably pretty damn similar.

But if you need one regularly, replace the battery or change your use patterns, rather than rely on a jump box.

Crikey! 90Ah in a pack that small- and it will charge in 3hrs from that plug adaptor up that thin wire !!!!  (I'd stand that on something fireproof)

Amazing :;

And if you actually believe it is 90Ah, I've got some great investment opportunities exclusively for you

Ha. Hadn't even noticed that... No, not a hope. Not that it NEEDS to be, of course. It's not just bulling, but it's bulling about an irrelevance.
 
Mine looks absolutely identical, and claims to be 12,000mAh - or, in real numbers, 12Ah - which is far more credible... Still not the particularly relevant metric, of course. It claims to deliver up to 600A - which is WAAAAAAAAY more than is actually required.

600A, 12Ah, about 70 seconds... If you're churning for THAT long, it ain't the battery that's the problem.
