4kW CHAdeMO V2H Inverter for Vehicle-to-Home & Vehicle-to-Vehicle Power

Product Description

The Electway V2H/V2V bidirectional inverter is a portable, high‑efficiency power conversion device that transforms your CHAdeMO‑compatible electric vehicle into a mobile energy source. If you own a Nissan Leaf or Mitsubishi i‑Mev, this solution provides backup power for your home during outages, emergency power for onboard camping needs, or the ability to rescue another electric vehicle on the road. With the help of self‑sustainable home energy supply, particularly if you want to or have to go “off‑grid” completely, this device works similarly to a stand‑alone emergency generator.

Built around a transformer‑isolated 4kW inverter, the unit delivers pure sine wave AC power with up to 99% efficiency, ensuring clean, reliable electricity for a wide range of applications.

Parameters

Product Features

• Dual Functionality (V2H + V2V): Supports both Vehicle‑to‑Home (backup power for household appliances) and Vehicle‑to‑Vehicle (emergency roadside charging for another EV) applications in a single portable unit.
• High Efficiency Inverter: Achieves up to 99% conversion efficiency with pure sine wave output, minimizing energy loss and ensuring clean power for sensitive electronics.
• Transformer Isolated Design: Provides galvanic isolation between the EV battery and output, enhancing safety for both the user and connected devices.
• Built for CHAdeMO EVs: Optimized for Nissan Leaf, Mitsubishi i‑Mev, and other CHAdeMO standard EVs, with a rated input range of 280–420V DC (maximum 450V DC).
• Intuitive 5″ Touch Display: Large touchscreen provides real‑time power monitoring, battery status, and remote control functionality – no complex setup required.
• Dual 16A AC Outlets: Two standard socket outlets deliver 220V AC, ideal for powering home appliances, camping gear, or emergency equipment.
• Portable & Lightweight: Compact dimensions (59.2×45.3×23.7 cm) and manageable weight (25.35 kg) allow easy transport in the trunk of your EV.
• V2V Roadside Rescue Capability: Unlike standalone V2H systems, this unit enables one EV to charge another – a true game‑changer for roadside assistance and off‑grid travel.

Key Advantages

• Backup Power Without a Generator: When the grid goes down, your EV becomes the power source. The Electway V2H provides 4kW of clean, quiet, fuel‑free backup power – no noisy generators, no gasoline storage, no exhaust fumes.
• Turn Your EV into a Mobile Emergency Power Station: From powering a refrigerator during a blackout to running lights and communication equipment during a natural disaster, your EV's battery becomes an instant home backup system.
• Off‑Grid Living & Camping Made Easy: For van‑lifers, overlanders, and off‑grid enthusiasts, this portable inverter lets you power everything from a coffee maker to a laptop directly from your EV – no separate generator needed.
• Roadside Rescue – V2V Charging: Stranded EV? The V2V feature allows you to transfer energy from a donor EV to a depleted EV, providing enough range to reach the nearest charging station – eliminating costly towing fees.
• Save Thousands on Dedicated Home Batteries: Home energy storage systems like Tesla Powerwall cost $10,000+. If you already own a CHAdeMO EV, the Electway V2H leverages your existing vehicle battery as a 15–40kWh home backup system at a fraction of the cost.
• Quiet, Clean, Maintenance‑Free Operation: Unlike diesel or gasoline generators, the V2H inverter produces zero emissions and operates at just 45dB – quieter than a normal conversation.
• CE & RoHS Certified: Fully compliant with international safety and environmental standards, ready for deployment worldwide.

Main Applications

• Home Backup Power (V2H): Connect your CHAdeMO EV to the V2H inverter and power essential household appliances during grid outages – keep refrigerators, lights, routers, medical devices, and communication equipment running for hours or days.
• Camping & Overlanding (V2L): Take your EV off‑grid and use the V2H inverter to power camping gear – electric grills, coffee makers, portable fridges, lighting, and device charging. No need for a separate generator or solar setup.
• Emergency Preparedness: Natural disasters and extreme weather events often disrupt power for extended periods. The Electway V2H turns your EV into a critical emergency resource, capable of keeping essential circuits alive for days.
• Roadside Rescue & Fleet Operations (V2V): Equip service vehicles with a V2V unit to provide emergency charging to stranded EVs. Perfect for tow truck operators, auto clubs, roadside assistance fleets, and EV rental companies looking to eliminate towing costs and enhance customer satisfaction.
• Remote Job Sites & Construction: Provide temporary power at off‑grid work sites – from tools and chargers to site lighting and communication equipment – directly from a work vehicle.
• Rental & Car‑Sharing Vehicles: Differentiate your EV fleet by offering built‑in V2H/V2V capability – renters can enjoy camping trips or be assured of roadside rescue, adding premium value to your service.
• Off‑Grid Homes & Cabins: For properties not connected to the grid, the Electway V2H provides a flexible, quiet, and emissions‑free power solution using a CHAdeMO EV as the primary energy source.

V2H (Vehicle to Home) technology enables electric vehicles to supply power back to homes, creating a smarter and more efficient energy system. With advanced energy management, V2H helps reduce electricity costs and provides reliable backup power during outages.

Designed for modern households, V2H solves challenges such as unstable power supply and energy waste. A family installed a V2H system to use stored EV energy during peak hours, improving energy efficiency and reducing dependence on the grid.

Choosing V2H brings flexible energy control, sustainability, and a smarter future lifestyle.
