Background
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.Template:Cite

The recipe for this item is taught by [Schematic: Goblin Jumper Cables], a limited sale recipe available for 20

- Kzixx in Duskwood,

- and Veenix in Stonetalon Mountains.
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, the cables 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.
- 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.
