Here is a video explaining how a hybrid car, such as a Toyota Prius, can be used as a gas generator to power any electronic you want, for as long as you want. There are many people who use a Prius for this purpose, which is why a Prius is often referred to as a "generator on wheels." Basically, you hook up a power inverter to the 12-volt battery and the hybrid battery charges the 12-volt battery.... and when the hybrid battery gets low, the gas engine will kick on to recharge the hybrid battery, and then shut back off.
There are not any actual videos explaining how it works so I decided to make one. It's truly an incredible feature for people who camp, travel, or live in their cars.... and with the popularity of hybrid cars increasing, this is an excellent feature to know about, especially in times of economic downfall or famine.
As with any electrical system, things can fail so make sure you are safe with everything and double check all the connections, wires, inverter, etc when you are using it to make sure it is all working properly.
