@TechConnectify Great video. My house has a 200A service but no insulation ๐Ÿ˜‚ Redoing our attic with cellulose but itโ€™s true, non-framed, brick construction with no furring and plaster on said brick so itโ€™s hyper inefficient. With an electric car, range, dryer, heat pump and a gas water heater / furnace we spent $250 on gas and $210 on electricity last month. And thatโ€™s at $1.11/therm and 12c/kWh. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
@snazzyq @TechConnectify I enjoyed it also. I have Span system but sadly itโ€™s my secondary panel because the Ford Home Integration system doesnโ€™t like the span panel (and apparently now my truck, too).
@Aminorjourney that's a bummer! I think Ford's idea there is really cool.
Relatedly, I'll be arranging a longevity test on my Ioniq 5's V2L function soon. I want to see how much of the pack using it to power my fridge, freezer, modem, laptop, and the appliances needed to cook meals for the day (like a portable cooktop, toaster oven, microwave) uses. Very curious to find out!
@TechConnectify given the size, at least 3 days.
@Aminorjourney My math makes it close to a week! But I want to know what the standby losses are, so I'll hook everything up through the kill-a-watt and compare what left to what SOC loss was
@TechConnectify @Aminorjourney I ran mine for a week last May powering a couple fridges, Wi-Fi, some LED lights. Used around 10% of the battery but didnโ€™t cook with it (used a BBQ instead) so was only drawing 200W when the fridge was running. The rest of the stuff was less than 100W so didnโ€™t even register on the car.

@rebelpeasant @TechConnectify Before the (now broken) Ford system was installed, we ran the entire house electrical system (including a couple of resistive heaters and the server room) for a few days just by running extension cables to our truck. Still had 1/2 the power left when done.

@TechConnectify I cannot wit. Also, Iโ€™d LOVE a price comparison to alternatives. I suspect mine is the most expensive and useless.
@Aminorjourney @TechConnectify Can't wait for the Enphase V2H system to go with my Enphase solar panels!
