Powerful Jump Starter
Black & Decker's 500-amp power inverters attach to a 12V battery to power tools, radio, grills, and more while you're out on the trail, tailgating, or at the beach. Cold weather causes older batteries to dip below the starting threshold. The 500-amp jump starter allows you to start a car without another vehicle. It also has a tire inflator and will charge cell phones and other devices. Information: Black & Decker, 800.544.6986, www.blackanddecker.com.

Tough Jeep Rocker Protection

The Billy Rocker is available for the TJ, LJ, and both JK models. Information: Nemesis Ind. Inc., 303.974.2440, www.nem-ind.com.
