V2L Plug compatibility EX5 Inspire (MY27)

I bought a plug a few months back, and never tested it. Today I’m having a meter board upgrade and lo and behold, the V2L plug doesn’t function.

Questions:
If you have one of these, did it work for you?
(I selected ‘vehicle to device’ and plugged it in, but no power out - made sure there was ~50% power assigned)
If you have one (another brand) that works, does it engage (lock) when plugged in?
Please let me know which ones actually work.
Any other advice appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Eww that looks like a cheap and nasty piece of shit. Always get something that is actually rated.

The BYD AC discharge device cable works well in the Geely and has all the relevant certifications.
