back to listings SME Profile: Portable Power Ltd

For over 25 years, Portable Power Ltd has been doing one thing, helping mechanics start engines, time and time again, without fail.

The company started importing jump starters in 1994 before launching their very own pack, the Portable Power 1000 in 1999, followed by the Portable Power 1700 in 2002.

2020 saw the launch of the incredibly popular Portable Power 1800 Rapid Charge.

With an unwavering focus on the professional mechanic market, something that remains a foundation of the business to this day, Portable Power Ltd produce jump starters that aim to be the most reliable, heavy-duty, simple to use, versatile, lightweight and portable on the market.

For almost 20 years the Portable Power 1000 and 1700 were exclusively available through Snap-on UK and Snap-on USA. In 2017 the company made the decision to start selling direct to consumers and through a network of independent tool distributors.

Following Portable Power Ltd’s decision to sell direct and through independent tool distributors, the company has expanded its market, which now includes farmers and agricultural contractors, fleet operators, breakdown and recovery companies, car sales companies, woodsmen and loggers, haulage companies, heavy duty civil engineering works, marine engineers and classic car owners, proving that the Portable Power Packs/Jump Starters are essential equipment for professionals in many walks of life who depend on keeping vehicles moving.

What sets Portable Power Ltd’s jump starters apart from the rest?

To understand this, it is important to state that jump starters are an essential tool for professional mechanics and they need it to work without fail.

Portable Power Ltd manufacture, test and service every pack from a dedicated facility in Yorkshire. From the detachable leads, which are made of 400 strand pure copper cable, to the high-rated 24AH battery, every component has been chosen to maximise reliability and performance.

Being based in Yorkshire with manufacturing, service and warranty performed there, Portable Power Ltd is in a unique position to other Power Pack/Jump Starter companies that import their product from overseas and have no direct contact with the professionals who actually use the Packs on a day to day basis. Over the 26 years that Portable Power Ltd have been located in Yorkshire, they have been able to receive and act upon important information from “real users” which has led to helping in their continuing policy of providing the highest quality available, in product, product performance and customer service.

The company are so confident in the quality of their packs that they offer a best-in-class, 2 year no-quibble warranty (including the battery) on every pack. In the event that an accident happens and a pack is broken, the pack will be collected, fixed and returned to the customer in 48-72 hours.

This dedication to quality and customer service has put Portable Power Ltd in the position of being trusted by 50% of professional mechanics.
