Start Your Car Safely in Minutes with the SIMPLE START™ from Black & Decker®

Would you know what to do if your car battery let you down? Ever turned the key to find that the engine splutters and just won’t start?

The most straightforward solution might be to call for roadside assistance or more worryingly get out the jump leads and ask a stranger for help. Rather than waiting, uncertain as to when help might arrive or risking your safety, Black & Decker® have introduced the SIMPLE START™ battery booster, designed to get you back on the road in minutes.

Gone are the days of struggling to open the bonnet and touching dangerous or dirty engine parts. Instead, all you need to do is plug the SIMPLE START™ into the cigarette lighter and wait 15 minutes. It works by quickly boosting a failing battery, giving it enough charge to get the engine started.

The compact design means that the SIMPLE START™ fits easily into most car glove compartments, so it is always at hand for emergency situations. It also features a torch so you don’t have to fumble around in the dark.
