V2L Not Working While Driving?

[Jazzfreak123]

My bro attempted to juice up his laptop using the V2L outlet in my car while on the move, but it just didn't cooperate. Is it normal for the outlet to be only active when the car is parked, or am I missing something? Got any tips?

The V2L outlet works when the car is running but not while it is charging.

Your brother should've been able to charge up the laptop while the car is running, but yeah, it it is charging the V2L won't work. Might want to double-check if your car was charging at the same time.

The V2L outlet should work while the car is running, but as @lazy_boy said, it won't if the car itself is charging. Have you tried using it when you are just driving, not plugged into a charging station? Might be worth a test.

V2L can be tricky sometimes. Like the others said, if you are charging the car, it won't let you use the outlet.
