Which Black Jack is right for me?

How to Choose which Black Jack is right for me?

The new generation of Black Jack Trailer Jacks consists of three different models, each with their own benefits. The following guide will describe the differences between each model and aid you in deciding which will be the best fit for you.  

Features that set them apart-

Black Jack Mini

The Black Jack Mini the lightest, most affordable electric trailer jack on the market today. The Mini is the only electric trailer jack that is designed to fit within an existing jockey wheel bracket, making installation as easy as bolting it on and plugging in the pre-installed Anderson plug connector. The Black Jack Mini also now comes with the Black Jack Safe Auto Stop, which prevents the jack from being over-run at its extremes. The Mini can be used on any caravan up to 3500kg and has a lift height of 500mm.

Key Features and Included Accessories

Surprisingly Powerful: Weighing just 8.5kg, the Mini can lift a massive 1000kg. This is plenty for any caravan or trailer up to 3500kg. Easy to Install: Thanks to the pre-wired Anderson plug, setup is quick and hassle-free. The design also includes three mounting options, so you can optimise lift height and storage position. 3-Year Warranty: All Black Jack products—including the Mini, its accessories, and spare parts—are backed by a full 3-year warranty from the date of purchase. Included in the Box:

• Black Jack Mini with Safe Auto Stop
• Black Jack All Weather Cover for extra protection against the sun and the elements
• Black Jack Foot Pad to prevent sinking in softer terrain
• Manual Handle, as a backup in case of loss of power.

Why would I buy a Mini?

The Mini is an entry level Black Jack with a big heart. If these things are important to you, buy it.

1. I like the lower price point at RRP $375.
2. My caravan\trailer has an existing 50mm jockey wheel clamp so the Mini will fit straight in, and after that it is permanently mounted.
3. It has 3 mounting positions so I can easily adjust it to suit.
4. My caravan\trailer is toward the lighter end, say 2,000-3500kg with a tow ball weight of 200-350kg.
5. The real estate in the A frame is tight or crowded, so it may not be possible to fit the Black Jack Clamp necessary to mount the Master and Maxi.

Black Jack Master

The most recent addition to the Black Jack product line is the Black Jack Master. This jack requires the use of the included Black Jack Clamp Bracket and has been developed with the Black Jack Safe Auto Stop. The Master can be used on any caravan up to 4000kg and has a lift height of 650mm.

Key Features and Included Accessories

Brute Strength: The Master has a lifting capacity of 1600kg, meaning it has more than enough strength for any caravan or trailer up to 4000kg. Simple to Install: The Master includes the Patented Black Jack Clamp Bracket, enabling simple installation. 3-Year Warranty: All Black Jack products—including the Master, its accessories, and spare parts—are backed by a full 3-year warranty from the date of purchase. Included in the Box:

• Black Jack Master with Safe Auto Stop
• Patented Black Jack Clamp Bracket
• Black Jack Folding Foot
• Black Jack All Weather Cover for extra protection against the sun and the elements
• Black Jack Foot Pad to prevent sinking in softer terrain
• Manual Handle, as a backup in case of loss of power.

Why would I buy a Master?

The Master is a mid-range Black Jack with almost all the features. If these things are important to you, buy it.

1. I like the lower price point of the Master v the Maxi ($525 v $635).
2. I don’t need the remote control, ball bearing worm drive and extra lift capacity the Maxi offers.
3. My caravan\trailer is a good size, say 3,000-4000kg with a tow ball weight of 250-400kg.
4. I have room to install the Black Jack Clamp on my chassis A frame.
5. I really like the folding foot option that comes with the Master

Black Jack Maxi

The Black Jack Maxi is a quantum leap in technology and represents the top of the line for Black Jacks. The Maxi is the only electric trailer jack in Australia that utilizes a ball bearing worm drive, twice as efficient, faster and quieter than others on the market. It is also the only electric trailer jack available that has remote control operation built in, allows for easier hitching and unhitching and makes levelling your caravan a breeze. The Maxi can be used on any caravan or trailer up to 5000kg and has a max lift height of 650mm.

Key Features and Included Accessories

Superior Lifting Power: Equipped with an ultra-efficient ball bearing worm drive, the Maxi has a lifting capacity of 2000kg, meaning it has more than enough strength for any caravan or trailer up to 5000kg. It’s faster, quieter, and more powerful. Simple to Install: The Maxi includes the Patented Black Jack Clamp Bracket, enabling simple installation.

Why would I buy a Maxi?

The Maxi is the full featured Black Jack with all the fruit. When you want the best, buy the best.

1. I like the remote control for ease of use, and I like the ball bearing worm drive that makes the Maxi quieter, faster, stronger and more efficient.
2. Price is less of a concern provided I am getting the best of the best.
3. My caravan\trailer is a bigger, say 3,000-4500kg with a tow ball weight of 350-450kg.
4. I really like the folding foot option that comes with the Maxi.
5. I don’t really need a 2,000kg lift capacity, but no one needs a V8 engine. But gee its nice.
