3600w portable power station with an EV charging port / J-plug.

It won't get you far, but it might be a nice piece of kit to have in the trunk if you're going on a long trip through unknown parts.

Would be better if it was an NACS plug. Maybe that's coming soon!

yeah it's certainly not infinite. I guess you could also pack a solar panel array with you and park for a few hours mid day to charge it up and go another 20 miles :D

what's a realistic distance from 3kwh? 15, 20 miles?
 
My 2019 Model 3, tuned, gets -4 mi/kWh from kWh already in the battery. But charging a battery from another battery will have significant losses. My home solar battery only provides ~86% of the solar power from the roof. There is a loss converting AC-to-DC for the battery and later, DC-to-AC from the battery into . . . the car AC-to-DC charger.

so, more like 12 miles on a good day, downhill, with a tailwind. Not really worth it i guess. but, if you were camping for a week and parked most the time, you could recharge at the camp site.
 
This battery provides a way to test the actual remaining range after your EV warns you it's running out of juice.

After you conduct this test, you still have a battery you can use for picnics, tailgates, etc. (or you can return it?).
 
I don't get it. Just a battery that can power camping or tools, and charge an EV? Obviously not very much with only 3.6kWh battery. Why not just use your EV with V2L to power everything, no need for a separate battery pack?

I think the port is to charge it from an EVSE and not that it will work like an EVSE
