Or simply use the 12v or 120v source in your vehicle

Then you'll be sitting on the roof of your house charging your cell phone?

Better yet (not to mention safer and more convenient) buy a couple charging sticks (sold just about everywhere). Charge them up Saturday and you'll be good to go.

As to charging your phone off your car, golf cart or whatever.

You will need an adapter with the plug that goes into your cigarette lighter jack.

There is merit to worrying about how to charge the phone in the event of................

A more significant concern? Cell towers are obliterated, hence no cell service.

It is a hypothesis ant the moment.

However some thought should be given to ....what to do if you do not have cell phone capability for a prolonged period of time.

We have lots of old cell phones and extra batteries we got all of them charged any old phone is still good for 911

That would cause a huge number of children, teens, and young adults to suffer PTSD.

Buy a power bank charger. I got one about 6 years ago from QVC and it still works like a champ. You charge it up in an outlet and it stores the power and charges your iphone to full power for 5-6 times before it needs charged again. I have 3 around the house that we charge once a month and throw in our cars for emergency use. You can get them anywhere these days. Walmart probably has them. I'm sure you can get them at bestbuy.

There is not going to be responders. If you didn't evacuate, your on your own.

iPhones are designed for 5v, using a 9v battery without stepping the voltage down could damage your phone, plus a 9v battery only puts out about 500mah, about 25% of the iPhone battery capacity. Use your car or golf cart to charge.
