My mother-in-law recently purchased a 2027 Bolt. She is interested in being able to use the V2H capability in case of power outage. What I'm uncertain of is whether she would be required to use the Chevy V2H hardware, or if the vehicle would work with a third-party setup.
Has anyone out there with a 2027 Bolt tried using another bidirectional charging setup?
With the recent spike in gas prices, my mother-in-law is looking to make the switch to an EV. She is looking for a small SUV or hatchback, and she would like to be able to use the vehicle as a battery backup for her home in case of power outage.
I'm aware that the Cybertruck and F150 Lightning offer this, but they are far too big for her. I have found some conflicting info about the Kona EV supporting V2L. Should she wait for BYD to enter the market?
I would love to know if anyone here has a V2L setup. What vehicle and charger do you use?
