V2L power wash

[slmorgan42]

Hey
Just thinking about washing the car and the fact I have no power near by for the power washer. Has anyone else been using their car to run their power washer?

Tried using the car to power mine but its too much for it and it won't run.

The issue is going to be the start-stop nature of a jet wash. Every time it starts up, the power draw on the motor will be many times the rating of the motor. If the car's built in DC to AC inverter is well built it should shut down due to this overloading.

Been using V2L for a circular saw away from the house. Boiled a kettle with it long time ago
