You may find the answer to "how do I access the 12V battery", along with other fascinating questions, by reading the Owner's Manual.

It's now in the Knowledge Base
Why Don't I Get The EPA Mileage?
I'll try to fix the link in the first post too.

Not sure why my mpg is higher than what I am reading here.
I just bought my Prius 3 weeks ago (and loving every minute of it).
Right now I avg. 49.5 mpg.

I bought mine in Feb 08. I was ave. 48 MPG in the winter. April in May I am getting 53. Part of the increase is do to the warmer weather. I live in the Boston area but also I am coasting a lot more and I am coasting without regeneration being done. This allow for much longer coasting and you maintain you spend for longer.

I also start off slower and and think ahead more. I guess you could say I have learned how to drive my Prius.

I love it
