Right mun, got a tidy little question for you lot. Taking the EV6 down to Cardiff Bay this weekend for the local rugby club's do, and I'm planning to use the V2L to power an electric BBQ and some speakers. Has anyone actually done this without flattening the main battery? I’ve got the adapter plugged into the port, but I’m a bit wary of draining my 77kWh pack just to cook sausages for the boys from the Valleys. Also, does anyone know the exact pence per kWh it registers on my Octopus tariff when doing this? Don't want the club treasurer having a fit over the bill. Let me know if it’s a gimmick or actually brilliant!
