New Product Type S 8,600mAh Power Bank Jump Starter

The scoop

If you’ve ever been stuck with a dead car battery in a parking lot, you know that sinking feeling. The Type S Power Bank Jump Starter at Costco might just become your new best friend for roadside emergencies—and it does way more than just jump your car.

This compact 8,600mAh power bank packs enough punch to jump-start your vehicle while doubling as a portable charger for your phones, tablets, and other devices. It’s one of those products you hope you’ll never desperately need, but you’ll be so glad it’s in your trunk when you do.

For a portable jump starter, this hits a sweet spot between capability and portability. The 8,600mAh capacity should handle most cars, though if you’re driving a big truck or diesel vehicle, you might want something with more oomph. It’s compact enough to actually keep in your car without it taking up half your trunk space.

Bottom Line: This is solid insurance for your car and a practical backup charger rolled into one. At this price point, it’s a smart grab for peace of mind—especially during winter months when dead batteries happen most often.
