I think there's a diode bridge on the output cables of every lithium ion starter I've ever seen that keeps current from going back into the unit. I've also never seen a lithium model that can be charged from the output cables like a lead acid model can be. They can be left for months without complaint, and even though I charge mine regularly for work, we have two more in the household that don't see regular use and they make the engine go bang every time. It has gone dead, but a few minutes on a donor vehicle and it's back in action.

I use a Jump and Carry JNC 660 at work and it's basically never failed. I haven't tried the higher end offerings from like NOCO yet, but I have tried a lot of Lithium Ion jumpstarters and I think only once has one ever worked. I've used many of them, and keep coming back to Lead Acid models because I really feel like the Lithium Ion models aren't mature yet.
