A couple of years ago I recommended to the Wyoming Highway Patrol that they look at getting a few of these setup to charge stuck motorists along the interstates...

Taking 3 1/2 hours to charge 11 percent. It would be faster to tow it to a charger

Great idea in concept though

i think that Tesla slows down charging after 80%??

I charge the Mach-E at about 6.6 KW at night. (28A/240V)
My Powerboost can match that, of course. Just need the appropriate 240V adapter.

I've done it at the beach a couple of times on family weekends.

Got the concept... but in the depths of winter when tow trucks are at a premium, or far, far away, being able to right there and then plug in and give them enough charge to get to a safe place could be worth its weight in gold!

You need an adapter that will be 240v, that plug is only 120v. Look at your generator screen, it's only using one of the inverters.

Here is what you need to charge 1 Tesla at 30A 240V = 7200watts

You could charge 2 Teslas at 24A 120V = 2880watts each or 5760watts total with this

The second plug will get you two 15amp connections to charge at 15amps each. Not 30 each, that would be 60 amps.

Plug the first adapter listed into your truck. Then plug the second adapter listed into the first adapter.

still will only give you 30 amps total. You will not be able o charge each car at 30amps. You would need to set your charger to 15amps. Best to just charge one car in a pinch.
