Only recommendation would be fronts straight back and crossing the backs to the front (ex RL -> FR) this way tires would be on every hub to ensure even wear.

You can still lock your car. Either roll down the window, close the door, lock from inside and just roll the window up automatically. Or the way I always do it if I leave a pet in the car is use the old fashioned key. You don’t even need to leave a key inside.

For emergency needs <1000W , I would go with - a suicide cable directly to some garage outlet, - manually disconnect house from the grid. -Turn on only labeled breakers I want to power. Transfer switch is nice, but you can get by in emergency without it. Being ready for a ghetto solution will also help your neighbor. Just drive to their house and do the same.

I love this video and I’ve recently acquired a prius and I have absolutely fallen in love with it and I’ve become aware just through logic that it’s basically a generator so your video is exactly what I was looking for. I do have one question about what you do when you have your Prius disconnected from your home. Do you have any appliances that have set alarms or user settings on them that determine how they are used such as a coffee pot that has an alarm timer or a microwave that has certain Settings on it that reset to default when you disconnect your Prius from the home. Does the whole house power down and all those appliances reset to zero or default or do you not have any appliances that do that? It’s not a deal breaker for me but I’m just curious.

Hi Kim. I only have used my Prius to generate power for the home in emergency conditions where the main power grid was offline. Be sure to watch part 2 of my video (link in description), because I explain how to use the transfer switch. The transfer switch basically is configured so certain outlets/lines in the house can be switched between getting power from the generator OR the normal power supply. The other reason the power switch is important is so you can control how much is being powered in the house. The prius can't handle a lot of wattage so you wouldnt want to have it on a circuit that is powering something quite intense like a microwave/coffee pot/hair dryer, etc.

100A x 12V =1200W x 90% efficiency = 1000W usable power. Bigger inverter will last longer and handles power spikes better. You can use any size inverter as long you will draw up to 1200W from your prius

why are all you people i see using a hybrid to power your house doing it in such a way that EVERY vehicle can, you are hooking the inverter up to the battery that is charged by the alternator. what i would imagine you doing is using the generator that actually powers the hybrid electric drive system, THAT is where the REAL power is and the whole reason one would use a hybrid VS a regular vehicle..
@cawag98
3 жыл бұрын
Because, the regular car - regular alternator solution is only a temporary and not very good solution. Here's why: The amp output of the alternator is for a very high engine RPM, something like 2500-3000rpm - cruising down the road. Sitting in the driveway idling at 800%, you will not be able to recharge the battery against all but the smallest current draws. You could put a brick on the gas pedal and that will get your RPM up, but the car will go through fuel very quickly (a couple hours, I'd guess). Finally, a large current draw might overwhelm the alternator, and then you need car repairs... The full hybrid solution for medium current draws (up to 80-90A, or 900W or so) is really elegant: the car (usually a Prius) is left in 'ready' mode and will use the hybrid battery to replace the power taken from the 12v battery by the inverter. When the Hybrid battery is depleted enough, the gas engine cycles on and off to charge it. The car uses less than a standard generator, is quieter, requires no generator maintenance. Essential is correct and safe connections to a suitable inverter (namely thick 12v short wiring with a fuse of no more than 90A on the hot lead etc).
@the_socompsp

@@cawag98 uhh you realize that you both backed up MY point as well as got some things very wrong. a regular alternator that is on every car doesnt have to be at a high rpm to have its full amp output, it has a built in regulator to change current based upon needs. but the point i was making is that a hybrid such as a prius CAN produce more power than an alternator can produce which means it will use the gas more efficiently VS just the hundred or so amps the alternator would put out, (unless you have a dozen alternators running off the same engine, which i have seen done on a mobile radio station) my whole point from the onset was that you dont need a hybrid to do what was shown in the video, any car with an alternator would do this, and that is my point, that you'd be better off tapping into the hybrid system rather than tapping into the 12v alternator..

@@cawag98 hate to break this to you bud but those are not based on ENGINE RPM but ALTERNATOR RPM, once the alternator reaches 2500-3000 rpm the output plateaus. the reason the output starts to level off at 3000rpm is because that is how fast it is spinning while the engine is at idle, this is why the alternator has a SMALLER pulley than the engine pulley, this way when the engine is idle at 900 rpm the alternator is already at nearly 2500 rpm. this is also why vehicles equipped with an aux alternator have a "fast idle" of 1500 or so rpm, cause at that engine speed the alternator pulley is at whatever gear ratio higher, something like 4k-5k rpm.

What is the largest inverter you can use? How does one determine how much power is too much to ask the Prius to provide at one time? If there was a power outage, I certainly wouldn't be using my dishwasher, microwave or toaster oven, but the furnace motor, refrigerator, small freezer, several laptops, routers, and lights which I might be using all at the same time could add up to a bit of wattage.
