Ford Intelligent Backup on existing Tesla Solar + Powerwalls system

[regentscholar]

Has anyone successfully added Ford Intelligent Backup hardware to their home, that already has Tesla Powerwalls?
Looking at it as a possible backup power to a backup power, but unclear if doable, if messy, or just a dumb idea.
(Adding more Powerwalls would be a challenge, which is why I'm exploring)

Would be interesting, maybe once Tesla does allow their cars to do V2L or V2H it might be doable.
Tesla's system is so seamless I wouldn't want to do anything to mess with it's function

If you search, you’ll find lots of previous threads here about this question. I have a 36-panel solar array and three Tesla Powerwall batteries. So installing the Ford Intelligent backup system by Sunrun is superfluous and needlessly expensive, even if it worked.

Instead,, I’ve been considering using the Lightning as a backup generator in the event of a prolonged power outage. But even that is challenging. I’d have to install a safety switch to isolate the Powerwalls and solar array from my home and the truck. Probably not worth the hassle and expense.
