| Charge retention | not published | Holds charge for up to a year, so it is usable when actually needed |
| Engine limits | not published | Petrol up to 6 litres, diesel up to 3 litres. Diesel needs far more cranking current, which is why the diesel figure is half |

| Jump starts per charge | not published | About 20 |
| Peak amps | not published | 1000 A -- a peak figure, not a sustained one |
| Reverse polarity protection | not published | Yes, and it is the reason to buy a proper unit rather than a cheap one -- clamping backwards with an unprotected starter destroys electronics |

| Storage in a car | not published | Lithium, so it should not live in a car through Indian summer -- store it indoors |

| Voltage | Battery tool, so mains voltage is only a question for the charger, which is dual voltage | not published |
| Wet and dry | Yes, up to about 0.5 litres of liquid | not published |
| Why sold this way | It assumes you already own DeWalt 20V MAX batteries from other tools. If you do not, budget accordingly | not published |
