A good Jump Box?

Does anyone have any experience with a good jump box?
I'm looking for something to move from rig to rig to prevent being stranded in BFE. The 80 series is getting dual batteries but we have a few other rigs that could benefit from having a jump box and will never see dual batteries.
I have no need for one with lights, an air compressor, etc., just a simple reliable jump box.
Does it exist?
Thanks!!

i've used this on around the property for a few years:

(this is a good price, too. plus no shipping)

Sears Diehard has some great jumper boxes. I think mine is 5 years old and will run a magic bullet to blend margaritas off of the built in inverter.

all those jump boxes have is a small sealed battery and a wall charger mounted on the inside. you can easily make one up yourself for half the price by buying an ammo can throwing a battery in it with an anderson quick connector to make it look nice and a wall charger all in one compact box and just use a set of booster cables. you dont even need the wall charger if you rig up the wiring to charge it back up from your cigarette lighter.
