I bought this power PAC used, but it doesn't have an adapter to charge it. Is it possible to charge a power PAC using a generator? Like if I hook up the clamps to a positive/ negative post on my generator, will it charge the power PAC? Or does it only charge through the adapter port?

Don't know if it hurts your power pac or not but I sell used cars for a living and sometimes I forget to charge the pac before I take it somewhere I charge it all the time by hooking it up to my truck battery and the alternator charges it pretty fast. Pic is the one I have.

Seems like a good idea if they included a power cord for the lighter plug. Then you'll be able to charge the pac while driving.

Alright. The concept is pretty much the same with my generator. I live in a cabin with only a generator to provide electricity, so I was hoping to use this power PAC to power my mini fridge. I hate leaving the generator on longer than necessary.

But just to double check, are you normally supposed to charge your booster pac with an adapter? In other words, using the clamps isn't the preferred method of charging, right?

Your JNC is a fucking excellent unit. I have one I bought after using one at a used car lot where I worked. It has heavy cables and is well made.

If you connect that jump pack to line voltage by the cables you will fry it!
You need a twelve volt source to charge through the cables or a cigaratte lighter adapter (two male ends).
These people make both the above power packs:

You can find info on yours and maybe buy a replacement adapter.

No!! You will back feed it and blow it up. Has to be charged through the input port only. DANGEROUS your way!!
