We lost our power tonight and it’s still out. Thank goodness for my halo bolt ( I have 2)
I’m on oxygen so these really came in handy
I highly recommend this. Helped me tremendously

Nice to have.  I have the ones to start the car and used and came in handy for sure.

 

I have a halo I carry in case my phone needs charging.

I agree!  My BFF and her husband recently lost power in the overnight hours.  They both use CPAP machines.  Thankfully, their halos were fully charged and got them through the night.  (I have 5 halos and always keep them fully charged.)

@Krimpette  do you use your Halos for purposes other than the car?  My adult son & I each have one that stays in the car.

 

Thinking maybe it'd be good to also have another to keep in the house.

@rockygems123 Luckily, the only other thing I've used them for (other than starting a car) was using as a flashligh, and plugging in a lamp during an outage.  I always make sure my devices are fully charged when a storm is forecast, but if they run down, I can charge them with my halos.  I wouldn't be without them in both my house and my car.

Didn't use mine for a couple of years but now, I couldn't - wouldn't be without it.  

 

My whole neighborhood uses mine now.  

 

Got my son one for Christmas and he loves it.  Aired up 2 tires (different times) on a truck and started it a couple of times also. 

 

He is impressed!

It does give so much peace of mind to be able to recharge batteries and backup batteries.

Your provider should also be able to get you a backup metal tank of oxygen to store away for emergencies.  They will train everyone on its use.

Awhile back we were traveling and as we went to park at a rest area we noticed a lady with her hood up and she seemed on the verge of tears.   We parked next to her and she said her battery died and had been there a couple hours because no one she asked had jumper cables.  

 

So went to the trunk, pulled out the Halo and within a couple minutes she was on her way.  First time we had used it and it paid for itself right then and there.
