What is good and reliable battery jumper to carry around?

I had the: Clore Automotive Jump-N-Carry JNC660 1700 Peak Amp 12 Volt Jump Starter for 3 years and it broke.

Looking at: TACKLIFE T8 800A Peak 18000mAh Car Jump Starter.

Any reviews or recommendation? Thank you

I bought an 800A LiPo pack during Amazon Prime Days. Haven't used it yet, but it seems like a nice piece of kit.

Makes my 10yr old Lead Acid Jump Pack look like a dinosaur for certain!
 
I got the Cobra. have used used it to help multiple people (and even myself one time on my boat after an all weekend cove session).

Worked well. Bought some other cheaper versions off Groupon (not sure of brand) that I have helped people with in parking lots.

Both work well.
 
Similarly, I picked up the BEATIT B10 PRO. (800A / 12,800mAh)

Haven't had to use it yet, but I figure it will crank an I4 1.8L motor without issue. Can't believe I almost bought a big lead acid jumper before I found these tiny Li ones. ?
 
I’ve had that Jump n Carry 660 for six or seven years with no complaints. As I recall there is a decent warranty or rebuild service available for it...might give them a call.
 
Noco 1000 amp GB40 boost pack
Best jumper i have used
 
I installed a NOCO onboard charger and keep a NOCO portable jump pack onboard. Great peace of mind.
 
Ditto on NOCO.
 
I am really impressed with Noco
I have used many booster pack and chargers over my 30 years in the automotive industry.
NOCO seems very good quality.
Besides my 1000amp booster pack, i have this,

The motobatt(battery tender is the same brand) charger on the right is my second, the first had the bank number 4 die. Sent it back and they replaced it at no charge. This one lasted 6 months and bank 1 died.
The Nono cables and accessories are top notch
