Our verdict
The NOCO to buy for a diesel pickup, a large V8 or a boat. For a gasoline car, the lighter GB40 does the job.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Covers diesel engines up to 7.0 L, enough for most full-size diesel pickups
- Up to 80 jump starts per charge, by NOCO's figures
- Built-in voltmeter shows the vehicle battery's voltage

Cons
- 6 lb, about two and a half times the weight of the GB40: not a glovebox starter

The full review
Who it suits
Owners of diesel pickups, large gasoline trucks and SUVs, boats and RVs, and anyone who looks after several vehicles: 80 starts per charge goes a long way.
Who should skip it
Drivers of ordinary gasoline cars: the GB40 covers engines up to 6.0 L at well under half the weight. It is also not for vehicles with lithium starter batteries.
What we could not confirm
NOCO's data sheet does not give a warranty term or the unit's outer dimensions, and it does not state how long a full recharge takes through the faster 12 V input, so those rows are left out or general. The data sheet lists a Micro USB cable in the box; newer units may use USB-C.
