I've had to learn the hard way that there are some accessories and tools that every car should have in the trunk or glove compartment. After getting stuck far more often than I'd like to admit, I've discovered that a tire inflator and a jump starter kit can get you out of a ridiculous number of car breakdowns. Luckily, AstroAI is offering exactly those two for $36 and $40, respectively, thanks to the seasonal Amazon Big Spring Sale. However, the car battery jump starter deal is exclusive to Prime members.
AstroAI is one of CNET's favorite brands for car accessories like these. Its offerings have appeared in previous versions of our lists of the best tire inflators, pressure gauges and even multimeters. In addition to having consistently high ratings on Amazon and being nice-looking products, I can personally vouch for their quality since I have both items on sale sitting right in the trunk of my S197 Mustang.
The S8 car battery jump starter pack has a powerful 45C lithium battery with a 37Wh capacity (which you could also use as a power bank). It can jump-start gas engines up to 6.0 liters and diesel engines up to 3.0 liters, making it perfect for most cars, all normal motorcycles, many SUVs, pickups and even lawnmowers. With 1,500 amps of peak current, it can start even low and dead batteries easily.
On the other hand, the L7S portable tire inflator and air compressor is a "cordless" pump. That means it's a lightweight battery-powered inflator that doesn't need to be plugged in to do its job. It has a maximum air pressure of 150 PSI and a powerful 17 liters per minute airflow. It can inflate a 195/65R15 tire from 30 to 36 PSI in just 90 seconds. My personal favorite feature is the adjustable pressure units, allowing you to track PSI, bar, kPa and kg/cm².

Why this deal matters
Car troubles can strike at the worst possible times -- a dead battery or a flat tire can leave you stranded and stressed. That's why having a reliable tire inflator and jump starter could metaphorically and literally save your life. The AstroAI S8 jump starter and L7S tire inflator are not just high-quality -- they're on sale for a steal during this Amazon Big Spring Sale. For $36 and $40 you're investing in peace of mind, knowing you have the tools to handle common breakdowns yourself. But deals like this don't last forever -- there's no guarantee of stock or how long the sale will last, so it's smart to grab them while you can.
