    I just bought a new Noco Jump pack. Primarily for back up to jump my ATV if needed.

    I was reading through the fine print in the manual and it says it’s only suitable for lead-acid batteries.

    The box doesn’t specify which type of 12v batteries it’s designed for. And AGM or gel batteries are very common these days and I know recently there have been posts about this topic.

    But does anyone have real world experience with using these Noco jump packs and AGM batteries??

    AGM batteries are a type of lead acid battery…most people just aren’t aware of it. You’re fine to use the booster pack on it

    I believe an AGM is a type of lead acid battery- different construction.

    Everyone already said AGM is lead-acid but here is straight from Noco if it makes you feel better.

    Mine has been stored in truck outdoors year round for 6 or 7 years now. I charge it maybe twice a year and it worked a few months ago.

    I’ve stored and used mine many times in temps below -4. Never a problem. My wife jump started 2 back to back at work during the last cold spell. I charged it back up and back out into her car it went

    big-g why do you use yours daily? Have had mine for 2 years and have not used it once.

    Pretty sure he runs a service center at a dealership.

    What one do you guys suggest ?
