If it's an "Energy Star" fridge then its not likely to be a simple timer. More
likely it is some kind of algorythm that makes calculations based on how often
and how long the door is open, possibly even taking into account humidity, etc.
Might also be some kind of frost sensor.
I know
I debunked this almost a year ago. The "Engineer" in question is a
software engineer, NOT an EE. Here's the 3rd time I've posted links to my
videos where I explain why V2G or AC export is not possible in ANY Tesla:

[Updated] Engineer finds Tesla Model 3 is secretly equipped with hardware for
powering homes
By Matthew Beedham
Despite not being that keen on the idea,
If you're a little bit handy, you can hack a fridge/freezer defrost heater
to gain manual control over it. Then you can force it off to keep peak
loads down, or force it on to address heavy icing that the normal defrost
cycle isn't able to handle. (Either because normal defrost is insufficient,
or

Curiously, with the somewhat-ancient Kenmore refer here, that's the
~first~ thing it does after a power interruption, run a defrost
cycle. I have to remember yank the cord out of the wall before I
transfer my
Sorry, no it's not. I already have debunked this BS claim about a year ago:

Yes, it's technically possible to extract HV DC from the charge port in a
Tesla. You then need an external inverter to make AC. I personally have
done this on 2 occasions with my Tesla for emergency power outages, but
otherwise I don't think it's useful. You definitely wouldn't want to do it
on
When the refer defrost strip-heater kicks in and my house is on the 1.5 kW
inverter, it drops the load and we go dark. But then simply cycling power
restores is because the drop of power resets the "energy-star" design will
NOT let the defrost come on when power is restored, so you probably get

Boy, I wish. My minimum load is close to 2.5 KW. I am really looking

How do you heat your water?

Well, apparently the Tesla's onboard level-2 charger is (theoretically) capable
of bidirectional capability. So V2G/V2H might just require a software upgrade.
Musk has stated that the Cybertrucks will have onboard AC outlets, possibly
even 240V outlets capable of powering a small house, or

Tesla specifically will void your warranty if you use your car for this.
The battery chemistry is not optimized for it, and excepting for
emergencies, it just doesn't
