The consensus

What reviewers found

Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.

Across the reviewers we read, the GBX155 is the pick when 2000 amps isn't enough. Walmart verified-purchase reviewers cite it successfully jumping a Toyota Camry at 24°F after a competing Stanley unit failed, and Home Depot retailer reviews describe repeated successful starts on heavy vehicles. The manufacturer-cited 4250A rating covers gas engines up to 10.0L and diesels up to 8.0L, putting it in the heavy-duty / fleet range without crossing into the GB150/GB250 commercial price tier.

What reviewers liked

  • 4250A rating handles full-size trucks and 8.0L diesels per manufacturer spec
  • Walmart verified-purchase reviewers cite successful cold-weather starts where competing units failed
  • USB-C Power Delivery in/out lets it double as a laptop power bank
  • r/MechanicAdvice general NOCO endorsement applies

Where it falls short

  • Lowest Amazon rating (4.2) among the NOCO models reviewed here
  • r/batteries thread documents charging-wake-up failure when pack is deeply discharged
  • Premium price near $370
  • Heavier and bulkier than the GB40/GB70

Across the reviews

Synthesis · not our verdict

Across the reviewers we read, the GBX155 is the pick when 2000 amps isn't enough. Walmart verified-purchase reviewers cite it successfully jumping a Toyota Camry at 24°F after a competing Stanley unit failed, and Home Depot retailer reviews describe repeated successful starts on heavy vehicles. The manufacturer-cited 4250A rating covers gas engines up to 10.0L and diesels up to 8.0L, putting it in the heavy-duty / fleet range without crossing into the GB150/GB250 commercial price tier. USB-C Power Delivery for recharging is called out across multiple YouTube reviewers in the data.

The disagreement is real: the GBX155's 4.2-star Amazon average across nearly 7,000 reviews is the lowest of any NOCO model in this pool, and an r/batteries thread specifically flags a scenario where the unit's internal charger refuses to wake a deeply discharged pack. r/MechanicAdvice still puts NOCO ahead of Chinese-brand alternatives on complaint rates, but buyers should know the GBX155 has a noticeably weaker retailer-rating signal than the GB70 or GB40.

Strong jump start, plus built-in pump and light. It costs a bit more, but the all-in-one setup is super convenient.
