Charging your RV with an EV plug?

[@GatorsRock0219]

Another great video but there's a technical error in it. In the second segment, you describe using a dogbone to plug a 30A RV into a 50A receptacle. However, the graphic image shows a dogbone for plugging a 50A RV into a 30A receptacle. Doh!

Can't wait for these each week

CAUTION Even though you earlier stressed the importance of verifying presence of a NEUTRAL in a NEMA 14-50R Receptacle, after the five minute segment of your tips you spoke of plugging an RV into an EV charging station and as some EV's may use straight 240 Volts (NO Neutral necessarily required) I SUGGEST YOU AGAIN EMPHASIZE THERE MUST BE A NEUTRAL in that receptacle, as otherwise a 50 Amp RV plugged therein could be severely damaged !!!!!!!!!! Just because we engineers understand 120 240 and Neutral, the typical non sparky RVer may not !!!!!!!!!!! Best wishes keep up the tips and great videos John T Electrical Power Distribution Engineer...

I've asked you before about my camper not charging the battery when hooked to shore power, with your help I figured it out , the manufacturer or dealer didn't install all of the fuses in my 8735 ad converter, thank you for your assistance

Hey todd love ur content , wathin from nova scotia thanks for all ur help and addvice

[@EarlBalentine]

Great video. I used to pull my 3200lb TT with my Tesla Model Y. While plugged into the 30amp rv park pedestal I would plug my Tesla into the 50amp outlet, 30amp or 15amp whatever was available.

Question: Do I really need a slide out lock. Sorry I don’t see a questions tab. Thanks love your shows

[@1gesteban]

GREAT, GREAT, GREAT VIDEO!!!! OK, now my question: When upgrading your RV/travel trailer by adding an inverter (specifically, with one that includes a charger and automatic transfer switch), will there still be the need for the converter that came with the travel trailer? I was told "no" by someone at Victron, but it doesn't sound correct to me.

Is there a way to schedule a phone call to go over using EV stations to charge lithium batteries in an RV? I would really like to talk to someone about my specific system to make sure I don’t damage something. TIA.

[@maleiarimmer297]

Great Channel!! Love all the great information! We have a question that nobody really knows the answer to! We have an Alliance 340rl that we are picking up in May/June. We have a garage that has a 50 amp plug and want to know if we can leave it plugged when in storage? We have a 12 volt refrigerator and would like to keep it running while in storage but don’t know if it would damage the lithium batteries or other part of the solar system with constant power going to them and very little pull on the system. I would appreciate you expert advice! Thanks!

Hello Todd can I hook up a Solar generator to Shore power at a RV or State Parks?

[@calledtojourney]

You can connect most battery packs to any wall outlet.

Had to plug your big beard battery.

[@ScottDLR]

You can't plug an RV into an EV plug because they have no neutral. Also, most of the for-pay stations aren't AC, they're high voltage DC. However, most level 2 (not all) EV home chargers are plugged into a Nema 14-50R standard receptacle and you could certainly plug into that (just like a CG). You'd want to verify it has a neutral since it isn't needed for the EV charger.

Now pepper are going to be camping at EV Stations 😮

[@DragonWolf478]

I don't think you get 'free' electricity at those store EV stations. Usually there is some type of credit card or something linked to them you pay through. Just sayin - don't run out there and use up all of those spots just yet... (Plus, that is a jerk move.)

[@melendyladyboykin2482]

I had no idea EVs is free electricity. I thought they paid for that. WOW!!!

[@calledtojourney]

Sometimes they pay, but sometimes it's free. Some cities provide free power at certain charging stations. But most EV charging is done at the owners' homes, which makes a lot more sense.

[@garrettpowell5094]

Why would you let your beard get that long?

[@TheSevonne]

Why would you care about the way another man wears his facial hair? P.S. maybe one reason is because women think it’s attractive, like I do.

[@antruze]

Just like everything else, just because you can doesn’t mean you should. I don’t own an ev and don’t want one, however those ev stations have an intended use of charging a primary vehicle battery. Don’t be d&@k. Just sayin
