In the RPG

This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.

This device consists of several thick yellow cables that snake out from a copper-wrapped battery. Attach the cables to various points on a recently fallen comrade, flip the switch, and the body jerks off the ground and spasms mightily while electricity plays over the thinly insulated cables. The smell of burning hair wafts up. In addition to being fun to watch, this display sometimes revives the individual. Goblin jumper cables can only revive a person that has been dead for fewer than ten minutes.

Source

This item is created with Engineering (165); taught by  [Schematic: Goblin Jumper Cables].

Materials required:

	6x [Iron Bar]			2x [Whirring Bronze Gizmo]
	2x [Flask of Oil]			2x [Silk Cloth]
	2x [Shadowgem]			1x [Fused Wiring]

Notes

• The jumper cables share a 30min cooldown with the  [Goblin Jumper Cables XL] and the  [Gnomish Army Knife].
• The Cables are not soulbound, so if they fail to resurrect but there is another Engineer with enough skill to use them, they can be passed to that player for another try.
• NPCs cannot be resurrected, but you can resurrect pets and other players.
• Despite its name you do not need to be a goblin engineer to use these, or to make them. Any engineer can do so.
• An improved version,  [Goblin Jumper Cables XL], have a success rate of 50%. They require Engineering skill of at least 265, and do require Goblin Engineering specialization to make.
  • A further improved version,  [Gnomish Army Knife], allegedly has a success rate of 66%. They require Engineering skill of at least 350 and the rank of Grand Master Engineer.
• These are useful if you are class that cannot resurrect normally, but are able to escape or avoid a fight. (Rogues, Hunters and Mages(with [Invisibility]) would be a good example)
• Occasionally the jumper cables strike you for 50 nature damage.
• The jumper cables were temporarily available as an artifact in Heroes of the Storm.
• Khadgar has a pair of Goblin Jumper Cables that he used to revive an adventurer.

Patch changes

• Patch 2.4.2 (2008-05-13): Goblin Jumper Cables are no longer a trinket item.
  
• Patch 1.5.0 (2005-06-07):
