WORX 12V Multifunction Jump Starter

What’s to love: Not only will this jump start 12-volt car batteries, but can be used to charge cellphones and other small electronics and has LED lights that can be used for a work light, flashlight or emergency light and is small enough to be stored in the glove box.

What does it do: The starter is rectangular and narrow with a platform base. It comes with heavy duty battery clamps, 12V charging cable, and a USB charging cable. The LED lights can be configured several ways including a solid bright white for a work light or red and flashing red lights for emergencies. It has a retractable hook for hanging and the base is magnetic so that it can be securely attached to a vehicle or other metallic surfaces. The Jump Starter is covered by a three year limited warranty and sells for $99.99. For more information, visit Worx.com.

What’s to love: It is a portable device that uses UV light to kill bacteria, viruses and molds on surfaces.

What does it do: Flip open and turn on and hold the light a quarter inch above a surface to disinfect.
