After all this EV talk, all I can think of is the test vehicle at Thetford that was an all electric motorhome (built in a Travco body). It had 10 grp 27 (~100AH) LA batteries, and a hydrogen detector that was in constant alarm mode....
The battery pack in a hybrid Explorer is supposed to be 300V and about 100AH -
What A House Bank that would make.
Ok, restrap it for 240V 3 wire and get a cigar box size inverter for the things that actually need AC. You can now run the microwave without any concern. Or the Roof AC for that matter.
Just dreaming. . . . .

In the style of Mick Dundee ("Crocodile Dundee") when
confronting the hood on the street with the "noyfe" ("That's
not a noyfe, this is a noyfe"), let me say that "that's not
a bat'ry pack". The battery pack in the all-electric
motorhome built here in Riverside a few months back and on
display at the Louisville RV show in November had a battery
pack of 454-kWhr and 324 volts. It weighed right around
11,000 lbs. Now, that's a bat'ry pack.
The GVWR of the vehicle chassis was right around 54,000 lbs.
