Here are a few steps you can take to try and determine the charging requirements for your Carlyle 400 jump starter box:
1. Check the user manual: If you still have the user manual for the jump starter, it should provide information about the charging specifications. Look for a section that details the power requirements or charging instructions. If you don't have the manual, you might be able to find it online by searching the model name and number.
2. Examine the jump starter and its connectors: Look for any labels or markings on the jump starter itself that might indicate the voltage or amperage required for charging. Additionally, inspect the connectors or ports on the jump starter to see if they match any standard charger types or if there are any specifications mentioned.
3. Seek assistance from an electronics store: Consider visiting an electronics store or contacting their customer support to ask if they have any universal chargers that could work with your jump starter. Bring the jump starter box and any information you have, such as the model number or identifying markings, to help them better assist you.
4. Reach out to NAPA again: While you mentioned you've already tried contacting NAPA, it might be worth trying again and explaining the situation to a different representative or perhaps speaking with a supervisor.
They may have more access to information or be able to direct you to a solution.

If you are unable to find a replacement charger, you can make your own. You will need a 12V power supply, a DC-to-DC converter, and a charging cable. The power supply can be an old laptop charger or a car battery charger. The DC-to-DC converter will convert the 12V input to a lower voltage that is compatible with the jump starter box. The charging cable will connect the power supply to the jump starter box.
Here are the steps on how to make your own charger:
Connect the positive terminal of the power supply to the positive terminal of the DC-to-DC converter.
Connect the negative terminal of the power supply to the negative terminal of the DC-to-DC converter.
Connect the output of the DC-to-DC converter to the charging cable.
Connect the positive clamp of the charging cable to the positive terminal of the jump starter box.
Connect the negative clamp of the charging cable to the negative terminal of the jump starter box.
Once the charger is connected, you can start charging the jump starter box. The charging time will vary depending on the capacity of the jump starter box.
Here are some safety tips to keep in mind when charging the jump starter box:
Always disconnect the power supply from the jump starter box when it is not in use.
Do not use the jump starter box if it is wet or damaged.
Do not overcharge the jump starter box.
I hope this helps!
