Does anyone else own a Tesla Cyber Truck, and us it at all to charge their electric bikes with?

ive used mine to charge my Energica and it works pretty well.  I can even use it to push my CCS fast charge with 9.6 kw into it although with a standard  L2 charger you could get the same power into it at 40A which is what the 240 is rated at.

just curious on one thing, this beast will charge at 250 kw or so when you have a charger that can really let loose on it.  Has anyone experienced the cable getting so hot you'll burn yourself touching it.  I don't think that's supposed to be that hot, so asking here to see if anyone else has any experience with them or charging their electric bikes with their tesla.  It actually works out nice at the track because i can fash-ish charge with the truck, then slow charge the truck back up with the 120 vac and not have to pay extra for the 50A service.  Cansleep in the back too and save the 80 a night for a hotel, so it's working out good..  too bad there isn't a way to backfeed the bike to run stuff off of.

ps.  actually, the Rivian, that has power on board too doesn't it, and the Ford Lightning.  Any of those owners used them for their bikes.  be curious to see.

My Ioniq 5 has V2L as well but I've never bothered charging the bike from it. I suppose I might have a try for funsies one day.

use it to take the bike for a romp and recharge during lunch or something.  it might be fun, and at least, another way to bring a charge with you and not have to fret about a station if you are in the middle of the woods or something.
