V60 hybrid starter battery charging
I have a 2016 V60 D5 hybrid. Where I live is prone to power cuts. It occurs to me that I have an 11 kWh lithium ion battery in the car which would be handy as a stand by.
A trawl of the internet suggests there are fiendishly expensive solutions - but a much simpler method suggested for a Nissan leaf is to connect an inverter to the 12V starter battery with a pair of croc clips and as you run your TV/fridge etc from the inverter, the starter motor battery is charged by the lithium ion hybrid battery.
Does anyone know please if the Volvo lead acid starter battery is charged by the hybrid battery in the same way?
Thanks
