For the uneducated, what's wrong with it?

Watt and volt are two different measures for electricity. Also your fridge will not work when hooked up to a car battery for many other technical reasons, including differ t voltages, and current types (AC/CD, not the band)

Unless you have an electric car that can do vehicle to load. That means that you can plug in regular household devices like your fridge.

That vehicle isn’t using a traditional 12v car battery for that. Also the point t is you can’t connect a car battery to a fridge and expect it to work.

Not with that attitude!

So. The answer is yes you can. If the car is an EV with V2L. Which I am guessing is what that uncle was talking about in the post.

V2L doesn’t relies on traditional 12v battery…

Okay. But it's a car. Full of batteries.

Correct, but entirely besides the point.
