Mine is gas, but still needs power for the igniter and the fan. It is a lot more efficient than constantly keeping a tank of water hot, and it never runs out.

Just in my garage I have a fridge and tankless water heater that would benefit from V2L in a blackout. Within easy extension cord reach I also have my modem, router, and TV. My EVs could easily keep these essentials running for a week or two, and indefinitely if charging is available somewhere nearby.
They’re a Tesla rival in the same way that I’m a Michael Jordan rival because I played in middle school and stunk.
You need an EVSE (commonly confused with a charger) that is compatible with the plug type, regardless of voltage. A level 1 (110) EVSE usually comes with the car, and those sometimes have comparability with level 2 (220) via an interchangeable plug adapter.
Could be colder outside, the battery could be fuller, could be that the charger is malfunctioning, could be any number of other things.
