5 Years ago, I designed and built a 12V battery based on cells sold at battery hookup. It’s been running every day since October 17 2021. The cells are 3.2V 600mAh. I have a battery balancer attached to the cells which very rarely illuminates. The arrangement is 9 in parallel, 4 Series so 4S9P. It works great in winter and summer, no issues at all. If you are planning on doing something like this, you can definitely do it on your Prius. I cannot say the same for other cars. I would not jumper other cars from a battery like this either. But anyway, screw lead acid batteries, they never last 2 years in Washington State weather. Here I have proven that LifePo4 can do 5 years without any issues. The battery looks like new on the outside and on the inside. It changes fine and the car has not stalled or left me anywhere stranded since. Original post a the other place before I was banned for whatever stupid reason. https://www.reddit.com/r/prius/comments/qacx7w/im_testing_my_32650_12v_lifepo4_battery_after/
Not an expert but regular cars need way more current to start the full gas engine than the Prius C needs. Hundreds of “Cold Cranking Amps”, whatever those are.
That is why this battery is fine in the Prius C but not for jump starting a regular combustion engine.
It’s essentially how much current can the battery supply to start (crank) the engine at it’s minimum service temperature - essentially the worst-case minimum current it can supply. Bigger engines need bigger starter motors to overcome inertia, which needs more power to work. Since the battery is fixed at ~12V, more power means more current.
