That wasn't what I was suggesting...
I was specifically suggesting to hook up a jumpstart pack as if you were going to jump start the car. Once connected, and able to supply power to the vehicle, it would -seem- that would enable the electronic controls to be able to release the brake.
I would NEVER allow anyone to do what you are suggesting as it isn't something the motors were designed for and they could be damaged far too easily.
