Omoda Compatible V2L (Vehicle to Load) | EV Discharge Cable

A simple adapter power source (Omoda only)

This V2L (Vehicle to Load, sometimes called Vehicle to Device or V2D) cable turns your Omoda E5 into a mobile power source for household appliances. Plug it into the car's Type 2 charge port, select the discharge option on the infotainment display, and you have a working socket wherever the car is parked. Genuinely useful for powering camping equipment miles from the nearest hook-up.

You can connect up to 3.3kW of load, depending on the car model.

One important warning. A vehicle-to-load cable must never be connected to any other electrical system, because there is no voltage or phase synchronisation between the two. Ignoring this will void your vehicle warranty and has the potential to cause serious damage to both the connected system and the car.

Cable information

• 16A, 3G1.5, 10.5mm diameter
• IP44 rated

What IP44 means in practice. The cable will operate in dusty conditions and will resist splashes of water while mated to the car. The connection is not fully water sealed, though, so the cable must never be submerged.

Looking after it

• Keep the cable out of puddles. Stored outside is fine, sitting in standing water is not.
• Fit the rubber dust cover whenever the cable is not in use, so debris cannot collect in the connector.
• Moisture is far and away the most common problem we see. It corrodes the pins, and pin corrosion is not covered by our warranty.

What about using it in the rain? Water can still get into the plug and the charging socket during the moments you are inserting or removing it. As soon as the charge port is open or the cable is unplugged, rain lands on the pins and stays there until the next time you connect. Wipe them, cap them, and the problem largely goes away.
