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

| Jump starts per charge | About 20 | not published |
| Peak amps | 1000 A -- a peak figure, not a sustained one | not published |
| Reverse polarity protection | Yes, and it is the reason to buy a proper unit rather than a cheap one -- clamping backwards with an unprotected starter destroys electronics | not published |
| Runtime | not published | About 18 minutes on a 5.0 Ah battery |
| Storage in a car | Lithium, so it should not live in a car through Indian summer -- store it indoors | not published |

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