Emergency 120 V power adapter

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
My friend has a Hyundai Ioniq and he was recently able to power multiple appliances in his home during a power outage using an emergency power adapter that comes with the Ioniq. The adapter provides a 120 V outlet directly from the charge port. The Ford F150 Lightning is also equipped with multiple 120 V outlets. Does Tesla offer an adapter to provide 120 V power during outages?

No Tesla does not. The only relatively easy thing you can do close is to get an inverter that is powered by the 12V socket, but you have limited power available (12A continuous, 16A peak, which translates to about 150W). Note if you have the lithium-ion low voltage battery, you would need an inverter that can handle 16V as per warning in manual:
For vehicles manufactured after approximately November 2021, power inverters plugged into the low voltage power socket must support 16V DC input to function.

There is a whole thread dedicated to this:

People that are more ambitious have connected directly to the DC-DC converter under there rear seat for more power, but doing so you run a bigger risk of damaging it.
