7th SIP Rescue Pac 1600 Rating

3.0 out of 5

There are no frills with this Swiss-made SIP booster pack – not even a work light.

But you do get a punchy 700-amp, 22Ah battery that spun our engine over like no other – ideal for breakdown work.

There is a 12V socket, but the Rescue Pac is held back here by the fact it has no battery isolator, wrong polarity warning or extras like compressors and a light.
