I use a snap on one, not cheap but small and effective.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

http://www.batterychargers.com/sl1/I think that's a newer model, pretty sure this is the same one only has a different name on it.

Harbor Freight has portable ones for about 39.99. I have one that I used to start my lease Jeep.

Looks like the Shumacker is almost the same as the snap on. Had no idea they came in such small packages. Definitely a future purchase. I'm with TEXASLEFTY no way I'm relying on a harbor freight job for this type of item.

What ever Lowe’s sells but it’s suspect in a diesel, works great on a gasser though. Even walked it up a mountain to use on a dirtbike

I second the Noco GB40 . It’s on sale on Amazon for like $79 . Auto zone sells it as well for around $100. Mine hasn’t let me down yet. I just now recharged it for first time. I’ve jumped at least 8 vehicles for friends and family . Along with charging mine and my buddies phone in deer stand . On first charge . So good I just bought both my parents one for their vehicles
