Thanks Michigan. According to several sources, a 5000 watt gas generator burns about 3/4 gallon per hour. If the generator can produce 5kw/hr it would take 16.4 hours and 12.3 gallons of gas to charge up the Tesla batteries. If the Tesla can travel 290 miles on a charge, the maximum gas mileage with the portable charger would be 290 miles/12.3 gallons = 23.6 mpg. I don't believe this would happen in reality. The 290 mile range is probably under ideal conditions and toting a big non-aerodynamic load on the back of your vehicle isn't ideal.
... and the neighbors will LOVE that generator running non-stop for 16 hours ... except for when the power goes out.
Math is racist, so I heard... Kek!
Does it at least reduce its own battery discharge by charging from an alternator? Or is this not feasible?
This looks like the exact model... https://amzn.to/3x1clKu
