I forgot to turn on my charger for the CV8Z and the battery was dead as a maggot so I could not unlock the doors but after 5 minutes of thinking I stole the battery from the car next to it (HQ GTS) and used this battery to back feed power back in the Z via the charging port and was able it open the doors.
All cars have there own power point next to them with the Projector charger next to the PP with a 200MM long lead and the DC lead is about 3M so all I do is under the wheel arch is the waterproof female connection point, lift to door and plug the battery charger end in. All cars have fuses for protection in case of a short but its just about impossible with these Male Female plugs. Both connectors are made by Duratech

the little charger I have has the facitlity to be mounted inside the engine bay Also has all the cables you need in the box.

I thought about it and decided not to.

This unit.
