Black+Decker launches ‘powerbank’ that dispenses with ‘pacifier’ and even inflates tires

With the Carnival holiday approaching, more and more people hit the road and, along with that, more unforeseen mechanical events happen. It is precisely with the idea of not leaving the driver helpless in emergency situations that Black+Decker has put on the market the JS350CC auxiliary starter starter — a multifunctional equipment designed to eliminate dependence on third parties in cases of electrical failure.

The main differential of the model — with offers starting at R$ 630 — is its ability to operate without the need for a “donor vehicle” for cargo transfer (the popular “pacifier”). With a starting power of 350A, the device can start the engine on its own, even if the original battery is completely discharged. This autonomy is crucial on highways or isolated locations, where waiting for mechanical help or the goodwill of other drivers can pose a safety risk.

In addition to solving electrical breakdowns, the JS350CC incorporates functions of general utility for the trip. The device features an integrated tire inflator with a pressure of up to 100 PSI. The tool is used both for the emergency calibration of car tires and for leisure, facilitating the inflation of balls and pool buoys typical of summer.

In terms of connectivity and security, the auxiliary works as a portable power station. It has a USB port (5V 500 mA), allowing the recharging of cell phones and small electronics — a vital feature to keep communication active in case the car’s battery fails in a place without signal. The safety package is complemented by a set of four LED lamps, which guarantee lighting for night repairs or road signaling.

Compact, the equipment reinforces the brand’s portfolio, which holds the RA1000 seal of excellence in service, positioning itself as an indispensable preventive safety item in the trunk for those who will face the road in the coming days.
