Juicing Up My EcoFlow with the Kia EV6!

[Yaboii123]

I'm thinking of hooking up my Kia EV6’s V2L function to juice up my EcoFlow inverter and battery. Gonna just use a regular extension cord with a C15 plug. Is this a safe and efficient way to charge the EcoFlow? Any random things I should keep in mind or potential stuff that could go sideways?

Just a heads-up: the US version of V2L has a lower max amperage than the UK version. So, make sure the device you're charging doesn’t go over that amperage limit, or you might run into some trouble!

Ah, good to know! I’ll definitely check the specs to make sure I’m within the limits. Anything else I should be aware of, like sudden overheating or weird power surges?

That should work just fine. I am confident with my answer because I have used a V2L system to pull 1400W overnight with no problems, so as long as you stay within the EV6’s limit, you will be good. Just use a decent extension cord so it doesn’t overheat, and double-check the EcoFlow’s input specs to match.
