Replacing the batteries in my 6.6 Duramax today has me thinking about picking up a NOCO GB150 for it's bug out kit...anyone have input
 
Have a NOCO GB40 in the Jeep....thanks for the replies, taking the plunge for the diesel. We just returned from a 1200 mile trip weekend before last & both truck batteries died on me yesterday...a wakeup call.
 
Luckily mine died on me at home before a hunting trip to SC and a young kid that drove a WRX was visiting a friend in the neighborhood and I asked if he cared to jump the truck (I had cables). He grabbed a jumpstarter not much bigger than an iPhone and jumped off my diesel. That was what got me thinking about them. I think I got them during either Prime or Black Friday but have used it a good bit. The GB150 was what I purchased, and I have a 6.6 Duramax.
 
had to look that up. looks like they are getting smaller. I have taken to bringing a back up battery
on hunting trips. use it for the winch and other power items. not ideal tho
 
If you enjoy driving over 65mph and the sweet feel of air conditioning blowing on your face on a 100 degree day this old girl is not for you.

I want to add an old beater diesel with a manual transmission to the fleet some day, I like those old Dodges. I might have a lead on a 7.3 Powerstroke though…
 
I have a noco gbx75 that I take on any trip.
I have used it on 24v systems for a little extra and it has worked well.

The research I did led me down the path to this one as well. A bit nervous leaving the new truck in -20 temps for a few days going on a cabin trip this winter. probably take the jumper to the cabin to keep it warm just in case, if anything I can charge my phone to call a tow truck.
