Bar2Charge V2L Adapter Type 2 to 230V Socket – 16A | IP44

Use power from your electric car — wherever you are! The compact Bar2Charge V2L adapter turns a compatible electric car into a mobile power source. The adapter's integrated European 230 V socket lets you easily power compatible electrical devices. Ideal for camping, holidays, on the road and at locations without a fixed power supply.

Turn your electric car into a mobile power source

V2L means Vehicle-to-Load: some electric cars can supply energy from their battery to external devices. Connect this black V2L adapter to the Type 2 charging port of a car that supports external V2L through this connection. Then use the integrated 230 V socket for a compatible device.

Why choose the Bar2Charge V2L adapter?

• 1 European 230 V socket (Schuko) for a laptop, phone charger, cool box, lighting or a compatible coffee maker, for example.
• Rated current of 16 A — theoretically 3,680 W at 230 V; the actual output power depends on the car.
• Compact and portable — easy to take along when traveling, in the car, or camping.
• IP44 after correct connection, in accordance with the stated product specifications.
• Durable black PC+ABS housing with copper alloy contacts and silver-plated contact surfaces.
• 2-year warranty and personal support from Bar2Charge.

Important: choose the correct car make and model

V2L adapters are not automatically universal. Car manufacturers use different resistance values and recognition systems for the V2L function. Therefore, it is important to choose an adapter version designed for your car make and model. When ordering, always select the correct make and model so we can supply the right version. The V2L function may not work with the wrong version.

We offer versions for these brands: Kia, Hyundai, MG, BYD, Renault, XPeng, Zeekr, Smart, Chery, Omoda and Jaecoo. This does not mean every model from these brands is compatible. Check whether your specific car supports external V2L via the Type 2 charging port and whether the selected adapter version is suitable. Compatibility can also vary by model year, trim, and software version. Is your car not listed, or are you unsure? Contact us before ordering.

Use our Car Compatibility Guide as a first step. Confirm V2L support with the car manufacturer or dealer.

Ideal for camping, vacations, and travel

Want to charge your laptop or phone, use lighting, or make coffee at a campsite or outdoor location without a power outlet? If your electric car supports it, V2L provides a practical power source.

• Charge a laptop and smartphone
• Use a suitable electric cooler
• Connect camping and outdoor lighting
• Use a suitable coffee machine or small household appliance
• Power suitable electric tools

The maximum power output depends on both the car and the adapter. Always check the power requirements of the connected devices and never exceed your vehicle's permitted V2L load.
