Was reading on the Renault Zoe subreddit about fitting an Inverter because this Car has No V2L, and i thought about that in the past but never did it because why throw Money at Something where i can’t think of usecases other than ‘it would be neat’. So to the people who have V2L, what are you using it for?
Sure, but adding off grid storage usually isn’t a bad idea.
You also never know if you’ll get slowed down between charging and returning home by inclement weather.
The batteries would need to go on an external wall or a wall in common with another unit so they’d need “architectural” and “safety” approval from the HOA. That’s not likely since I don’t have any statute to force their approval. I might be able to sneak the battery onto the common wall which is technically exterior but hidden by a fence and screen enclosure. They’d figure it out eventually though and make me remove it.
At least the “inclement” weather I’d face down here never comes back-to-back. Hurricanes take a few weeks to “recharge” too 😉
