A friend of mine ran down his Lexus and talking with him reminded me of a story I read somewhere else. Apparently someone came back to a dead 12V battery so they took a pair of 6 V. lantern batteries, wired them in series, disconnected the 12V battery, and started the car. While it was running, they reconnected the 12V battery and once it had a charge, they disconnected the two lantern batteries.

For the life of me, I can't remember went or where I read the story and it may have been speculation. Still, 'any port in a storm.'
