Proven power. Real control. Clear feedback.
HURST Jaws of Life eDRAULIC 3.0 tools are built for the moments that demand decisive performance. A digital dashboard provides real-time feedback to support confident—while keeping full control in the operator's hands.
Trusted by departments worldwide, eDRAULIC 3.0 helps crews work with speed, precision, and readiness—scene after scene.
Proven Performance in the Tools Crews Depend On
E3 Tools Ranked #1
In a U.S. Department of Homeland Security SAVER evaluation (Battery-Powered Rescue Tools for Vehicle Extrication), E3 Tools were ranked #1.
The Dashboard
The E3 dashboard provides direct, real-time feedback through clear performance and diagnostic indications on the display.
Users can quickly see:
- Force reserves: remaining operating capacity
- Battery status: remaining voltage always visible
- Opening / closing direction: visible to teammates nearby
- Roll warning alerts: additional cutting safety feedback
- Temperature indication: overheat protection behavior
- Saltwater mode indicator: when approved battery is installed
This feedback improves handling and operation, helping crews make quicker choices that support faster patient packaging times and safer tool use for rescuers and patients.
Features
Turbo
Speed when you want it. Control when you need it.
- Engages automatically at the end of star-grip rotation (open or close).
- Delivers maximum tool speed when conditions allow.
- Maintains precise feathering / throttling so the operator stays in control.
Salt & Fresh Water Ready
Built for wet, harsh environments.
- Operable in fresh water and salt water with certified protection (IP58 tool; IP68 battery).
- Rated for saltwater use up to 60 minutes at depths of 10 ft.
- Uses a dedicated saltwater battery; tool recognizes it and illuminates dashboard.
- After freshwater or saltwater use, rinse / clean as directed to maintain moving components.
Roll Warning
Added feedback for safer cuts with cutters and combis.
- Alerts when cutting conditions indicate potentially hazardous blade roll / twist.
- If the tool is in the high-pressure second stage and the axial rotation exceeds 15°, the power-button LED ring turns red.
- The warning informs the operator but does not stop the cut, so the crew maintains control.
Force Indicator
Know your remaining force level at-a-glance.
- Shows whether the tool still has operating capacity or is at its force limit during cutting / spreading.
- Four LED levels indicate force utilization correlated to pressure range (higher LEDs = higher utilization).
Star Grip
Clear motion cues for the whole team
- Opening / closing icons illuminate star grip direction.
- Visible nearby rescuers for coordination and as a training aid to reduce incorrect movement.
- Supports faster, clearer operation that can help reduce patient packaging time.
Temperature Indicator
Protects electronics during extended operation.
- Alerts when the tool is approaching overheating risk.
- When temperature indication is triggered, Turbo becomes inactive while the tool continues at normal speed.
Battery Status
Stay ready and avoid surprise downtime.
- Dashboard keeps remaining battery voltage visible during use.
- Enables battery changes before depletion.
- No need to press battery button to check charge.
Proprietary Battery System
Rescue-built power that holds strong under load
- Consistent current with no cutting/spreading power fade during demanding operations.
- Resists thermal shutdown in high radiant heat to help reduce interruptions on scene.
- IP68 ruggedization: waterproof, dust-proof, and impact-resistant for rescue-scene abuse.
- Mission-length endurance: more runtime, fewer swaps, and no performance slump under load.
- Guided power lighting and instant charge visibility for faster, confident swaps, especially in low light.
Captium keeps tools and fleets ready

Unified dashboards across tools and apparatus create a shared source of truth for readiness and maintenance.
|
Continuous monitoring with real-time alerts, faults, and diagnostic history helps prevent breakdowns and reduce out-of-service surprises.
|
Tool intelligence captures alerts (overload, temperature, submersion, drops) and ties them to run logs for faster troubleshooting and trend insight.

|
Battery and charger dashboards retain tool attachment history and surface battery / charger alerts for clearer lifecycle tracking. |
Service workflows improve with remote pre-diagnostics, centralized service requests, and better parts preparation before dispatch. |
Data transfer can occur via station Wi-Fi to keep reporting consistent without adding manual work.
