Proper specs for portable battery jump starter

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a portable battery jump starter for my car (a 2009 DBS). Something like this:

Amazon.com: Antigravity Batteries AG-XP-10 USB: Automotive

It's been more than a decade since I've taken a Physics course, so I'm clueless as to the minimum specs needed to jumpstart my battery.

Specifically, how many milliamps and peak amps does the jump starter need?

Thanks!

My advice: don't use a jumpstarter if you do not have to. Buy a proper battery charger/conditioner OEM from AM here: http://astonmartinbits.com/search?se...r=3&condition= or get a 7A Ctek [MXS-line] which is what AM uses as well (re-branded)
