Absolutely, i got a 3kW 48V to 220V for $99. 10kW for $999 is too expensive.

If you join the outputs together from three of those, would they phase synch?
I fit what I want to fit, not what they want to fit. My house, my wiring. Easy enough to get a 24kW commercial charger destined for a car park and wire it to your house.
A garage is for storing things and for a workshop. The car lives outside.
You do that at 240V, so not expensive.
Don't use surplus words.
No, use the same cable, electrons will go both ways.
Noisy, and prone to not starting. I hate one cylinder "engines".
No, but i want DC anyway. Even after rectifying, it hardly get over 220V DC. So, i use two sets to get 420.
Nobody checks that s*it, just fit it. You can have a manual switch which will obviously do the same job. In the UK technically it's illegal for me to fit a new 13A outlet. WTF?!
Why do you run your house on DC?
Car, not house.
At 240 volts, the cable will be cheap as it's thinner than a 12V one. Or you could run it at 400V DC from the car to there for even less, and put the invertor near the panel.
And if there's a powercut while they're already on? Now you trip the thing and your meal is half cooked and other stuff goes off like your computer and the DVR that was recording stuff.
More like 1500.
To have the full 24kW would be more convenient, you carry on regardless.
That's a weak 8kW charger you're talking about. And assuming you came home with an empty battery.
If you're out you don't need power.
I want 24kW, not 80. And I don't use that continuously.
I guess most 220V stuff will run DC or AC.
Huh, no.
LOL! It's a newsgroup. You can easily read the post I replied to. But since you are too lazy to actually research the issue being discussed, I guess you are too lazy to read another post.
Yes, you mentioned the 10kW inverter costing a mere $500 and I'm saying a much more simple EVSE is about that price, performing no conversion of the power and typically only handling 5kW at that price. I was given a BoM and costs for a 30amp EVSE and the $500 price tag is realistic. So there's no way you can sell a much more complex and component intensive inverter to handle much more power for the same price. But then, I've already explained that just above.
Do you understand what I'm saying now?
Yes, but those of us who want our cars to not burn up, and be responsible for any damage the fire causes, because our insurance won't cover that sort of homebrew garbage, don't install junk in our BEVs.
It is really hard to have a conversation with you, because you will never concede any point, no matter how clearly it is explained to you.
Yes, Ed Lee, the king of living cheap. Not the guy I would take advice from on this topic. We'll see how long it is before you manage to burn up your Leaf... a leaf fire.
A typical installation would switch to backup mode automatically, so the switch needs to be automatic. But it might be acceptable to use a manual switch if the connection were manual as well. But the transfer switch would be wired so the V2H were not connected unless the grid were disconnected. This could not be done through the regular charging connection as commercial units would do.
Your computer or anything else electronic with switched mode certainly will. First stage is to rectify it, which will simply do nothing. Resistive heating will be fine. Only AC motors will not work.
You've just admitted you're an ignorant money wasting resource wasting upper class twit. You're the sort that will die off because you can't do anything with limited resources.
Actually no I cant. I have all replies to existing conversations in a seperate folder, it's tidier and more efficient that way. If you delete context, don't expect a discussion on it.
I did google it first, why would I waste time with the likes of you if the answer is on google?
I understand you're misinformed. FFS just go try to buy one.
Unlikely. How would an invertor do that?
Life is more fun when you don't take responsibility.
I don't have insurance on anything, it's a rip off. You do realise they make money, right?
I do if and when I am proved wrong. That will never happen with you.
Translated into English, that means I won't put my car and the people who ride in it in danger of being immolated by excessive frugality.
It's kinda funny, Larkin accuses me of being compulsively cheap and Commander Kinky says I'm too much the spendthrift to survive. LOL
Anybody who puts safety above expenditure is pathetic.
STOP F****NG ABOUT WITH THE NEWSGROUPS! This belongs in THREE newsgroups. People who do not subscribe to your group are in the conversation you utterly selfish prick. Stop wasting my time adding them back in!!!!
Of course the rest of us know how to do that. It was you saying it was not needed and you could install a manual switch. But this arrangement precludes using the same connection point for the V2H as is used for charging. I believe the Chademo connection in the Nissan Leaf handles both. They probably have a protocol in the interface that communicates with a smart home unit that precludes operation of the V2H unless the grid is disconnected from the house.
This is not an area that is appropriate for home brew crap and it very likely requires any such device be tested and registered. I bet this is one area, that Ed Lee is knowledgeable in.
OMG! This is now preserved for all time!
