I've used the kettle for the occasional cup of tea on road trips, but it's not something I would depend on for cooking.
I have a compressor fridge/freezer (-15º to 4º Celsius) running of 12v which is great for long trips. As long as you have sentry-mode on, the 12v outlet is active. It will shut off sentry when the battery is below 20% so you won't get stranded. You can get cheaper thermoelectric fridges that will cool you stuff to 20º below ambient. (They can also heat your food to armpit temperatures if you're into that kind of eating) They can be had for around $100.

They don't run directly on the solar. They run on the deep cycle batteries, and those get charged by the solar. If you were running solely from solar, yeah they'd be pushing it. But having a couple deep cycle batteries gives you that bigger reservoir of power.

So without a solar panel setup, or home battery tender, what would be the best method to ensuring the batteries don't die, and running a power efficient cooler/fridge (12V .74Ah type)? Note: Prius doesn't have an alternator - the 12V battery sends a current to the traction battery to signal it to turn on the engine - so if the 12V battery is dead, then you'd have to jump start it.

And would you need to get a dual purpose AGM battery (starter and deep) to be able to jump start the car battery? i.e. starting/deep cycle like the Optima Yellowtophttps://www.amazon.com/Optima-Batteries-8014-045-YellowTop-Purpose/dp/B000MSBUA4 . This one is rated 55 Ah.

The portable cooler/fridge (DC) - https://www.amazon.com/Dometic-Electric-Powered-Cooler-Freezer/dp/B01MRDNXPL does for .74 Ah - thus 55/.74 = 74 hours -> about 3 days to safely discharge the Optima battery.

I am mainly concerned about very cold winter use. The heater in the Prius is too loud and turns on too frequently to be of use during the night so that would be off (would use a sleeping bag), and then I would leave the car on ready mode overnight to power a mini space heater, and to recharge the 2nd battery.

But over say 8 hours every night of recharging this via the battery isolator/DC-DC setup, would the 2nd battery top out?
