The Start Pac ONE is the smallest and lightest 26V aircraft jump-starter on the market. Weighing just 12 lbs (5.4 kg), this compact lithium-powered starting unit is designed specifically for engine starting applications. It delivers reliable emergency starts for turbine and piston engines and is ideal for voltage-sensitive aircraft that cannot accept a 28V external starter.
Unlike many ship’s batteries, the Start Pac ONE provides faster, cooler engine starts, reducing stress on starters and critical engine components. This helps extend turbine life, preserve onboard batteries, and lower long-term operating costs. Using the jump-starter for ground starts keeps your aircraft battery reserved for emergency use only.
Highly portable and air-carry approved, this 26V micro starting unit is perfect for field operations and remote locations where downtime is not an option. Certain aircraft allow the ship’s generator to back-charge a GPU, enabling field recharging without an AC source. Once back at home base, the unit can be recharged using the included proprietary external smart charger.
Virtually maintenance-free, the Start Pac ONE supports civil, commercial, and military aviation applications, including helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and UAVs. The rugged aluminum case features a durable, environmentally friendly, low-VOC powder-coat finish for protection in demanding ramp environments. Each unit comes complete with an aircraft cable adapter kit, external charger, and carry bag. Made in the USA.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The Start Pac ONE 26V Lithium Battery Jump-Starter is designed specifically for aircraft engine starting. It delivers emergency-start capability for turbine and piston engines while remaining compact and highly portable. This unit is not intended for powering avionics or continuous maintenance loads. Its purpose is to deliver reliable engine-starting performance.
The Start Pac ONE is for engine starting only and should not be used to draw continuous amps for maintenance. It is not designed to function as a continuous 28V ground power unit. Using it strictly as a jump-starter ensures optimal performance and long-term reliability. For continuous aircraft system power, a dedicated GPU should be used.
The Start Pac ONE outputs 26V DC and is designed for voltage-sensitive aircraft that cannot accept a true 28V external battery pack. Some aircraft electrical systems require lower voltage starting support to prevent damage to sensitive components. The 26V configuration makes this unit especially valuable for those applications. It provides a safe and compatible alternative to traditional 28V starters.
This aircraft jump-starter uses safe lithium-ion battery technology. Lithium-ion batteries provide twice the battery life of comparable lead-acid batteries. Unlike lead-acid systems, it does not suffer from sulfation and can be left in a discharged state without damaging battery plates. The result is longer service life and reduced maintenance concerns.
Weighing only 12 lbs (5.4 kg), the Start Pac ONE is one of the smallest and lightest 26V micro starting units available. Its compact size makes it air-portable and easy to carry onboard aircraft. This portability is especially beneficial for remote operations or aircraft repositioning. It’s an ideal backup starting solution for field use.
The Start Pac ONE provides faster and cooler engine starts than many onboard aircraft batteries. Reduced starter stress can help extend turbine engine life by minimizing strain on critical components. It also preserves the aircraft’s onboard battery for emergency use only. This can lower overall operating and battery replacement costs.
The Start Pac ONE jump-starting system can be used with helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and military UAVs. Its compact lithium design makes it suitable for the civil, commercial, and military markets. Because it is designed for voltage-sensitive aircraft, it fills a niche that many larger GPUs cannot. It supports a wide range of 24V aircraft applications.
The Start Pac ONE uses an external universal smart float-type charger. Charging time typically ranges from 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending on battery level. The charger accepts an AC input of 110V to 240V at 50/60 Hz. This flexibility supports both domestic and international operations.
Available accessories include a red 3-pin aircraft adaptor cable connector, a 6’ aircraft adapter cable, customized cable options, an external 26V charger, a square voltmeter, and an all-weather carrying bag. Custom cable configurations are also available upon request. These accessories allow operators to tailor the unit to specific aircraft needs. Having the proper adaptor ensures safe and efficient aircraft connections.
The unit features a durable aluminum case with an environmentally responsible, low-VOC powder coating. This protective finish helps guard against wear, tear, and harsh weather conditions. Despite its lightweight design, it is built for heavy-duty aviation environments. The included carry bag further protects the unit during transport.
