In addition to a built-in 12-volt power supply, the INDUSTRIAL 900™ JUMPSTART SYSTEM has several exclusive features that set it apart from other similar devices.

This will allow you to upgrade the basic unit to run 110-volt AC devices, while still

maintaining the unit’s one-piece, compact styling.
