Right, but I was thinking of a full power outlet, which here in Germany can deliver over 3kW. This would enable to run any electric device you can plug in from your car. Very convenient on the road, and as I wrote, a great solution for emergency power. It seems that the cybertruck will have a power outlet standard, but as the charger electronics already seem to support this, should be an option for all Teslas and other electric vehicles.

You could just connect an inverter directly to the main battery of course but that requires a bit more effort and might cause problems with warranties.
