Hello Is there a car jump starter that has a solar panel built in or can charge with a solar panel? and does that jump starter have 120w socket to run stuff like a blender or something? Thanks
You buy a lithium jump starter and it will hold a charge for a year. Then put a calendar item on your phone to remind you to charge the jump pack. If you use it, you charge it with a 12 V adapter that comes with it in your car as you're driving it. But only after it needs a charge or your year is up. Most of them have polarity sensing circuitry to avoid reverse jumps. Best $100 you ever spent if you use it one time. You can also use it for friends rather than risking your car with jumper cables. Which is a real issue with the Prius since jumper cables can blow a very difficult to change 125 amp fuse.
Thanks I am not sure you answered my questions but can you give me an example of the jump starter you mentioned ?
After watching the video below, I upgraded to the GOOLOO GT4000S Jump Starter. Note, it does not come with any 120V plug-in USB adapter (for charging). And, it can fast charge from a USB-C charger. Or, charge at a slower rate, from a standard USB Type-B charger. Code: Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRFwEUr_Vjc Best Car Jump Starter 2022? Jump Start a 5.9L Diesel & 7.4L Big Block?

A jump start pack is small and is intended to be charged up and left unattended until you need it. Noco GB40 is the one I have for less than $100. You could get a Portable Power Station for $425 that has what you want but you run the risk of hooking up its 12v output backward and it is liable to be discharged when you really need it. Then you are stranded needing a tow and $500 worth of repairs. The right tool for the job is a dedicated jump pack. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07SM5HBK1/ref=dp_ob_neva_mobile
that's a beautiful unit, pricey, but worth it if you need it. you can run up to 1000 watts off the prius 12v with an inverter and the car ready
