Amazon.com Product Description
Being stranded by the side of the road with a drained car battery can cause anyone to panic, especially if you don't have jumper cables. But you can give your car battery a boost from inside the comfort of your car with Black & Decker's Simple Start Battery Booster Car Starter. The Simple Start puts you back on the road quickly--just plug, charge, and go. No need for jumper cables or waiting for help to arrive. Simply insert the Simple Start's DC adapter into any of the car's 12-volt DC or cigarette lighter outlets and wait several minutes. A boost indicator LED and audible beep lets you know when your battery is charged and ready to start. 
Instead of jumper cables, plug the Simple Start into your cigarette lighter and start your car in minutes. View larger. |

 Don't rely on this device. October 6, 2008

What a great idea, I thought. Well, today was the day I finally had the "chance" to use it. I left my headlights on and was relieved to know that I could just pull out this device and be on my way. No such luck! I followed the instructions exactly and IT SIMPLY DID NOT WORK. Nada, zip. Why is this product still on the market? And why did the latest Consumer Reports just report it as one model that actually works. It doesn't.
Don't Buy October 1, 2008

I purchased the Black & Decker Simple Start a couple of years ago. This product is a total waste of money. I charged it once a month and when the time came to start my car it failed miserably. My advice is don't waste your money on this product. I am sending it to a recycle location.

I bought the Black & Decker BB7B Simple Start 12-Volt Battery Booster for an emergency but the first time i needed to use it for the first time and it didn't work it didn't even want to turn on. when i got home i tried to charge it but when you hit the charge button all it those its continually beeps and the green light doesn't blink it just stays a steady green light. it only works when it connected to the wall outlet. i tried leaving it on for the night. But the next morning it still didn't want to work without it being connected to the wall outlet.
I have to aggree with all of the above reviews September 12, 2008

Recieved this product from my mom for christmas. Just when i needed it I was out of town and left the map light on. I thought awsome finally after lugging this heaving thing around in the trunk i could finally use it. Didnt work. Wish i had a set of jumper cables. So mad I threw it in the dumpster at the hotel.
