EV Curve Futurist<p>From Ukraine to Texas, EVs aren’t just transport—they’re powerbanks on wheels. Whether it's keeping ventilators running in Kyiv or grilling through a blackout in Austin, BEVs are proving they can save lives and dinners, while also making our grids more resilient &amp; decentralised. <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23EVs" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EVs</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23V2L" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#V2L</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23V2G" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#V2G</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23V2X" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#V2X</a><br><br><a href="https://evcurvefuturist.com/2025/04/power-on-wheels-your-ev-as-a-lifeline/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Power on Wheels: Your EV as a ...</a></p>
Anthony Horton<p>Making sure I'm prepared for the scheduled power outage in two weeks.</p><p>Our BYD Seal came with a vehicle-to-load adapter, which is a ~5 m long cable with a Type 2 plug on one end and a 2 outlet mains power board on the other. By itself that's only good for supplying mains power to my driveway so I also have a 30 m extra-heavy duty extension cord, plus a weatherproof power board box to protect the connection from rain.</p><p>The main reason I laid this out today was to confirm that 30 m is the right length for the extension cord, and I was pleased to find that it does reach inside our house far enough to comfortably reach our fridge, or our living room. If I now get a second 30 m extension cord I can use the other outlet on the V2L adaptor and preserve both our food and our internet connection while the power is out.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/ElectricCar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElectricCar</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/EV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EV</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/V2L" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>V2L</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/BYD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BYD</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/BYDseal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BYDseal</span></a></p>

Anthony Horton<p>OK, well, I guess we'll be finding out how well our car works as a backup mains power supply.</p><p>Our BYD Seal came with a Vehicle To Load (V2L) adaptor, which takes the form of a short-ish mains cable with a Type 2 plug on one end and a power board with two 10A Australian mains outlets on the other. To go with that I already have a 30 metre long extra heavy duty extension lead, and a weatherproof power board enclosure. With our car parked in our driveway at the front of our house I can plug the V2L adaptor into the car, plug the extension lead into the adaptor, protect the junction from rain with the enclosure, and run the extension lead through to the back of our house where our fridge freezer is.</p><p>The fridge freezer is the thing I most want to keep powered, but Wednesdays are usually a working from home day for me so I might also try to keep the internet and our working-from-home monitor, etc. running too.</p><p>I'm currently wondering whether I want to get a second long extension lead so I can use both outlets on the V2L adaptor and make it a bit easier for me to get power to where I want it without resorting to daisy-chaining multiple power boards and extension leads.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/EV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EV</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ElectricCar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElectricCar</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/V2L" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>V2L</span></a></p>

Rob Farago<p>Almost 32% of the EVs sold in Australia is 2024 had <a href="https://aus.social/tags/V2L" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>V2L</span></a> (Vehicle to Load) capability, i.e. provided a 230V AC outlet.

Here are the top 25 models from 2024 and whether they currently support V2L and some photos of various model V2L adaptors.</p><p>V2L is a useful capability to use your EV battery to run small appliances when away camping or during a power blackout like your fridge, freezer, phone chargers, internet routers and even dialysis machines.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/jan/01/amazing-queensland-mum-uses-electric-car-to-save-sons-life-with-dialysis-during-power-outage" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/environment/20</span><span class="invisible">24/jan/01/amazing-queensland-mum-uses-electric-car-to-save-sons-life-with-dialysis-during-power-outage</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-06/is-queensland-built-for-severe-weather-electric-vehicle-power/103287984" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">abc.net.au/news/2024-01-06/is-</span><span class="invisible">queensland-built-for-severe-weather-electric-vehicle-power/103287984</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-09-11/powering-home-with-electronic-vehicle-ev-storms-power-outage/104314934" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">abc.net.au/news/2024-09-11/pow</span><span class="invisible">ering-home-with-electronic-vehicle-ev-storms-power-outage/104314934</span></a></p><p>Unfortunately many of the biggest selling EV brands don’t support V2L yet, e.g. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Tesla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tesla</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/BMW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BMW</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Volvo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Volvo</span></a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Mercedes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mercedes</span></a> and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Polestar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Polestar</span></a></p><p>Fortunately third parties are working on V2L devices as a retrofit option for Teslas, which don’t currently have V2L, using an external inverter. </p><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/vortipower/vortipower-vp2-tesla-3-y-s-x-powershare-external-discharge" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">kickstarter.com/projects/vorti</span><span class="invisible">power/vortipower-vp2-tesla-3-y-s-x-powershare-external-discharge</span></a></p><p>Using an external inverter to provide V2L, connects directly to the EV battery DC via the CCS2 plug, and is a more expensive solution than a V2L adaptor provided by the EV manufacturer, which uses an inverter inside the EV. </p><p>This technology is similar to how future <a href="https://aus.social/tags/V2H" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>V2H</span></a> and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/V2G" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>V2G</span></a> could work on existing EVs.</p>
