Its a 2 kW converter and it is assumed the car draws 500W. So the answer is around 1500W continuous, thought you can draw many kW for brief periods if your wires and your inverter can handle it. DATA POINT: At an EV demo yesterday I ran a demo yesterdy of 40 light bulbs to simulate a house,

This brings up a question about V2H with a Chevy Volt. In the Canadian article, he hooked up directly to the 12V lead-acid battery that's under the hatch-area floor. An alternative would be the accessory jack in the front-center arm rest. Is the accessory jack fed by a DC-to-DC converter and
