FAQs
What is the difference between boost peak rate and cranking rate?
The boost peak rate (e.g., 6400A) is the maximum current the booster can deliver for a short burst to start a stalled engine. The cranking rate (e.g., 3050A) is the sustained current it can provide to crank the engine over.
How do I recharge the SIP Pro Booster 6400?
Use the supplied mains fast charger. Connect it to the booster pack's charging port and a standard mains outlet. The digital display will indicate the charging status.
Can I use the 12V DC output to charge my laptop?
The 12V DC output is designed for devices that accept a standard 12V input, typically via a cigarette lighter-style plug. Check your laptop's power adapter specifications to confirm compatibility.
What vehicles can this booster start?
It is suitable for a wide range of vehicles including motorcycles, cars, vans, trucks, tractors, excavators, and HGVs, operating in both 12V and 24V systems.
What is the warranty period for the battery inside the unit?
The SIP Pro Booster 6400 comes with a 2-Year Standard Silver Warranty. However, the maintained battery within the unit has a separate warranty of 12 months.
Is the booster pack suitable for outdoor use?
While the casing is robust and shockproof, it is not waterproof. It is designed for professional environments, which may include outdoor use, but should be protected from direct rain or submersion.
How do I store the booster pack when not in use?
Store the booster pack in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is kept charged to maintain battery health. Avoid storing in extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting

Ensure the unit is charged. Check that the ON/OFF switch is in the correct position. Verify the charger is properly connected and functional.
