Frankly, I wouldn't wear out any emergency equipment because it might self destruct when I need it: in an emergency. It would be like using those little cigarette lighter socket powered air pumps you can buy in emergency roadside kits to maintain your tire's air pressure and then finding yourself in the middle of nowhere with a flat, but fillable, tire but a burned out pump.

What @MrDinkleman said is extremely important and logical. Assuming you'll own this car for say 5 years which involves taking tires off twice or more a season, and with possible mods underneath the car and what not you might as well invest in a quality low profile jack and 4 jack stands. Anything less is stupid and almost suicidal because you increase the risk of the car falling on you in any of those 5 years. Also just so you know so many online stores have awesome deals right now with black friday and christmas coming up you might as well take advantage and get a set for the cheapest they will probably be.
