Is EV to ebike charging possible?

[_Jason_South_Wales_]

I'm pretty new to emtb's so forgive me if this question is stupid.
Is there anyway I could charge my bike using an EV point at Tesco or petrol stations etc?
I'm wondering if there's some sort of adapter that can be purchased to make it possible?
Thanks

Quick answer is no.
You need your bike specific charger to connect to the bike and that would need a 240v ac outlet from the public charger, which they don't have, also your bikes bms would not give the correct hand shake to get the charger to work.
Best solution is to get a portable power bank.

Take a look at this vid on YouTube, it goes into some detail about charging an e-bike (i.e. getting 240V out of a public charging point) and boiling a kettle for a cup of tea while your at it.

I have a Delta ecoflow 1260wh power bank in the van but was unsure it's capable of charging my 750 battery without causing any over heating or damage..
Plus how long it would take etc.

It will be fine.
By saying 750wh battery, im assuming it's a bosch using a 4 amp charger.
They only draw about 200 wh.
Your eco flow can manage about 1500 wh.
I've seen a eco flow 1020wh power bank charge 2 amflows at once pulling 800 wh, no problems

Yes bosch 750wh.
I wasn't sure it would be sufficient
When I've been going away in the van for a few days I've struggled to find a source to recharge my battery so that's good news

I have a 800wh Ecoflow, that can output 1600watts. I have a 60kWh battery in my EV. I plug my 120watt 12V cable from the Ecoflow to the car. Literally giving me unlimited recharges for my 800wh Amflow battery, by plugging the Amflow Battery charger into the Ecoflow.

The Amflow draws 500 watts from the Ecoflow while charging, so the Ecoflow does slowly discharge whilst charging the Amflow, as the 120watt 12V supply from the car cannot keep up. But the Amflow battery gets filled before the Ecoflow runs out. Then the Ecoflow recharges back to 100% whilst I'm out riding from the 12V 120watt car connection.

The Ecoflow can put out up to 1600watts, so the 500watts the Amflow draws, is no effort at all for it. I have run a 1500watt coffee machine from the Ecoflow.
