I've never heard of it, which doesn't mean anything. Two things, though.
Make sure you get one that has an automatic cut off. I've got a manual one,
and it's a royal pain. It was, however, free. 100 amps isn't really enough
to jump start with if it's cold. If it's above freezing, it's fine, below
that, it might not enough.
