It should be able to jump start a car.. Yeah?

Some other charger models can actually do that. For example, DBPower, which is mentioned in the review https://toolsngoods.com/how-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-car-battery-with-a-12-volt-charger/ can jump start as well as charge your car's battery. It also works both with gas and diesel engines. Though gadgets with such features are always pricey, but if you only need a charger then 6/12V charger like Schumacher SC will work for you.

Good day all, just found this thread, I love DIY , I've practically been fixing stuffs on my car for a while now.

Please I need a battery powered brushless impact wrench, that can at least remove lug nuts, anyone that can help me with one here in Nigeria, toks preferably that is pocket friendly, the prices I'm seeing online (Amazon and eBay) plus shipping will send me back to the village, I'd really appreciate thanks.

I'm impressed a lot of people are into DIY. However, why don't we help ourselves and reach out to one another, combine tools and solve our car issues (for those within same geographical location). Who knows, partnership might result from that leading to a big foremost service workshop.

Can't wait for the video review. Bought one generic scanner like that on Aliexpress last year, easily the best 70k I ever spent online.

Congrats

seriously. Different people can concentrate on tools specific to a particular system in the car. When we need our individual work to be done, we reason it out and pull tools together. Will make procuring tools even cheaper and more convenient. It's worth a try.

Did the review video. Walked through the capabilities of the Autel MaxiPRO. I have no regrets investing the huge sum in this tool. Really pleased smiley

Great job, really loved the review, I've subscribed asap. The TPMS capabilities will interest me a lot, currently have an annoying TPMS problem in a Charger, Tacoma and a Corolla. Stock rims, proper air pressure. Tried a couple scanners and they can't pinpoint the exact wheel(s) that has the faulty sensor(s), and local man will rather drive with the lights on, than replace all sensors on a whim!

On a lighter note, Dear Chukel and Rationalmind - I can confirm Piyke's voice is soothing and there were no unnecessary backhand comments or inclusion of devious innuendos in his video. He somehow managed to cover everything his scanner can do in less than 25 mins. Although, I'd like to know how the owner of the Accord felt with so many problems for a car that isn't up to 4 years old.

Oga Eddee I did not say you should expose my ignorance o cheesy. Still didn't cover a lot and I'm not sure about the soothing something grin.

Will certainly do the TPMS one. That Accord was an accidented car advertised for sale. If I recall, the dealer even pulled out the airbag light to scam person angry.
Thanks for subscribing!
