Overview

A lithium-ion battery pack with heavy-duty clamps lets this DEWALT starter crank a car or truck without a second vehicle. The same pack doubles as a USB power bank, and a built-in LED light helps at the roadside after dark.

Starting power reaches the larger engines in the listing, and the fast USB-C port both recharges the unit and charges phones and tablets. It only works on lead-acid starting batteries, so vehicles with lithium starting batteries are not covered.

Who it's for

Drivers who want one compact box in the trunk to restart a truck, boat or ATV and top up a phone on the way. Owners of vehicles with lithium starting batteries are outside the listed compatibility.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Starts gas and diesel engines
  • No second vehicle needed
  • Fast USB-C PD input and output
  • Reverse-polarity warning on clamps
Cons
  • Lead-acid batteries only
  • Jumps per charge not listed

Performance notes

Starting success depends on how much current the lithium pack can push through the clamps in the first seconds of cranking, and on the pack being charged before it is needed. The reverse-polarity warning catches crossed clamps, and the USB-C PD port recharges the pack from a compatible charger.
