Have you got a link for that? I was intrigued just how many people might be doing this, but I came up with nothing. There was one article from the Times of India and a couple of YouTube videos showing that it's possible, but I couldn't find any information about it actually being done in California in any significant numbers.

The only generator that can do it apparently is the eu6500is, which retails at $4.5k so it's not likely to be very common, I would think - especially as it can only manage c. 5KW so it would take ages to get any sensible charge into a Tesla.

Another bit of anti-EV propaganda, perhaps?
