Keeping Engine Rnning


Recommended Posts

If you're worried about that, I suppose you just turn the car on and let it do whatever it needs to, whenever it needs to. If the battery gets too low, the ICE will run and recharge it.

Why not get one of those power packs with USB charging ports instead and charge your phone that way? You can get these in Walmart, Costco etc.

The bigger their battery, the more juice they will hold and can charge your iphone. The good ones can probably give you about 2 full charge cycles for an iphone.

Another alternative is to turn the car on without starting the ICE. You can do this by pressing the start button a couple of times in succession without holding the brake down. Then you could simply charge the phone off the battery (the 12-volt, I think). But I have no idea how long you could do this without draining it too much. I'm sure some other forum member can answer that question.
