Dead battery or something else?
If the dash lights are bright and the engine cranks slowly, that's usually a weak battery. If everything goes dark and you hear a single click, that's a deeply discharged battery or a bad connection. If the engine cranks strong and simply won't fire, the battery is probably fine and the problem is elsewhere — and we'll say so instead of pretending a boost will fix it.
After the jump we check whether the alternator is actually charging. A battery that dies again in an hour usually means the charging system, not the battery, is the culprit.
Why not just flag someone down?
Improper jumper cable use damages control modules on modern vehicles, and a reversed clamp can cost thousands. Our packs are polarity protected and isolate your electrical system. It also means you don't have to ask a stranger in a dark lot for help at midnight.
Cold weather and Cincinnati winters
Battery capacity drops sharply below freezing, which is why the first hard cold snap of the year fills our phone line. A battery that was marginal in October dies on the first 20-degree morning. If yours is over three years old and has cranked slowly even once, replace it before winter instead of standing in a parking lot in January.

Straight answers to what people ask us on the phone every day.
How much is a jump start in Cincinnati?
A mobile jump start starts at $59 during the day, priced by distance, and starts at $99 between 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM. You hear the number on the phone before we roll.
How long does a jump start take?
Usually under 10 minutes once we're on scene. Arrival across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky is typically 30 to 60 minutes.
Will a jump start fix my battery permanently?
No. A jump gets the engine running; it doesn't repair a failing battery. We test the battery and alternator on site and give you a straight answer on whether it's likely to strand you again.
Can you jump start a car in a parking garage?
Yes. Our jump packs are portable, so tight garages, apartment decks and covered lots are no problem — no need to maneuver another vehicle nose-to-nose.
