Weego Produces Two New-and-Improved Models to Wow Outdoor Enthusiasts and Pros
WESTAMPTON, N.J. (September 25, 2018) – Weego announces the launch of its new and improved, innovative Jump Starting Power Packs, Weego 44 and Weego 66. These compact, rugged power packs feature increased power and additional features to ensure that users are never left without the ease of use and power they need to keep moving.
Spec’d out with 10 percent more true cranking amps of power, Weego 66 now offers an incredible 660 cranking amps (2500 peak amps) while Weego 44 has increased to 440 cranking amps (2100 peak amps). Tremendous power for such a compact size, Weego Jump Starting Power Packs are built to satisfy any of the jump starting needs of outdoor enthusiasts and professionals alike, including tow operators on land and sea doing multiple jumps a day. Users get the safest, most powerful, reliable and compact portable jump starters on the market.
The new and improved Weego 44 is also outfitted with Weego’s AutoBoost™ technology. Built into Weego 66, the technology enhances the jump starting experience for extra-challenging, low-voltage vehicle batteries. With AutoBoost, maximum power is automatically sent to dead batteries (batteries down to 1/2 volt) without an override button which can compromise safety. This new feature eliminates all guesswork but is still incredibly safe for the user.
“We listened and responded to what our customers want,” said Gerry Toscani, CEO, Weego. “The upgraded capabilities of Weego 44 and 66 provide increased power and ease of use at an unmatched value. The fact that our Jump Starting Power Packs can jump at such a low voltage without compromising safety for the user, their Weego or their vehicle is a testament to our continuous improvement initiatives. Weego’s mission is to always give customers safe, reliable, easy-to-use products that last. This is what sets us apart from the rest.”
Also new to both products are space-saving, vertical-format packaging. Their on-shelf presence is more arresting for the brick-and-mortar shopper because of the bright graphics with clear callouts to the increased cranking amps, updated Jump Starting Power Pack name and more expansive gas and diesel engine size compatibilities. Each sku is identified with new model numbers: 44.1 and 66.1.
The upgraded Weego 44 will be available this October and the upgraded Weego 66 will debut in December.

National NGO Team Rubicon Given Weego Jump Starting Power Packs for Field Operations and Cash Donations from Weego’s Preparedness Month Promotion
WESTAMPTON, N.J. (August 14, 2018) – When a natural disaster strikes, Team Rubicon can now rely on Weego’s innovative Jump Starting Power Packs to help them provide disaster relief across the United States. Weego has partnered with and donated high-performance Weego 66 products to Team Rubicon disaster response teams in anticipation of another active season of hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and more.To generate cash support for Team Rubicon’s front-line efforts, Weego will also donate 10 percent of all myweego.com high-performance Jump Starting Power Pack sales during the month of September.
Team Rubicon is a nonprofit NGO that uniquely blends the skills and experiences of military veterans and first responders to rapidly deploy emergency response teams for immediate relief to those impacted by disasters and humanitarian crises.
“When our teams land on the ground after a natural disaster, they find themselves in what can be described as a war zone with unstable populations, limited resources and uncertain information,” said Jake Wood, founder, Team Rubicon. “Having a reliable, compact, powerful, portable power source, that also has the ability to jump start any of our field vehicles and aid others, is vital to restoring a sense of normality. Also, having the capability of recharging phones and laptops in the line of duty ensures communications won’t stop in the most remote locations. We are truly grateful for the support of Weego in donating emergency response equipment for our field trucks across the country.”
The donated Weego 66 model is compact, ruggedly built, weather-resistant (rated IP65) and powerful. It’s the perfect aid in remote locations and during rebuilding efforts, one of Team Rubicon’s major impacts in their relief services.
Since September is often an active month for hurricanes and other major weather-related events, particularly along the eastern coast of the United States, choosing to offer a percent-of-sales donation to Team Rubicon was only fitting to help bring more attention to emergency preparation. Weego will donate 10 percent of myweego.com Jump Starting Power Packs’ sales to Team Rubicon’s efforts. The online promotion runs from September 4-31, 2018.
“We are deeply inspired by the dedication of the 80,000 men and women volunteers of Team Rubicon,” said Gerry Toscani, CEO, Weego. “These volunteers lend a hand in some of the worst conditions imaginable during times when many are at their most desperate. We know that our contribution of Weego 66 and the donations from our online sales will make a difference for everyone on the front line.”
The four-in-one Weego 66, made for 12V gas and diesel engine systems, jump starts with 2500 peak amps and 600 cranking amps; is capable of bringing phones, tablets, laptops or other mobile devices back to life via 5V USB and 19V outputs; powers 12V portable accessories like air compressors, lanterns and camping equipment; and provides ultra-bright lighting functionality with a 600-lumen dual LED flashlight, complete with emergency strobe and SOS functions.
