    I’ve jumped a Tesla (Model S I think) a few times. It’s actually pretty easy. Just pop the grill off with a credit card and there’s jump points there. Once I jumped it, the main charging system would be available for use. Plugging in the main charger then keeps the 12v battery charged and you’re good to drive again. This I believe is a well engineered system and Tesla made it easily accessible.

    The dumb part is that until you do that, there’s no way to access the vehicle. No backup key. So if the car dies completely, there’s no way to access the cabin, trunk, or hood.
