Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a portable high voltage (HV) charging apparatus (HVCA); a low voltage (LV) energy storage device (ESD) at a first vehicle having terminals releasably coupled to said HVCA; a high voltage (HV) energy storage device (ESD) at a second vehicle having terminals releasably coupled to said HVCA; wherein said HVCA is configured to releasably couple a control module for said HV ESD; wherein said HVCA is configured to receive energy from said LV ESD and controllably provide energy to said HV ESD to boost said HV ESD output voltage; and wherein said HVCA is configured to charge said HV ESD while said HV ESD is offline, isolated from electrical components other than said HVCA and said control module.
