"Although it wasn’t wired to the home’s panel, the owner ran two extension cords with a splitter to power the refrigerators, freezers, Wi-Fi, select lights, and TV for nearly two full days. And the best part, when the power was restored, the Lightning still had 65% of its battery left."
In the UK the Central heating although gas fuelled depends on electricity to run the system, and pump the water, I thought it might be used for that.
It hardly seems to have kept people alive in this instance, but then until people can power the whole house by V2H running extension leads is the only way.
