Looking for a device to transfer power as needed between two outputs automatically after one shuts off or goes low power.
Post Body

Plugging in my car at the gym to charge to an outdoor outlet, but it’s getting cold outside. To help with fuel economy I run it on battery in the morning to and from the gym until I decide to drive to work. but it’s starting to get really chilly outside. I’m looking for something like the reverse of an auto transfer switch (ATS) that is typically used in a networking server rack. one power supply in, two out and it auto transfers when the charger is using low or no power and kicks on the heater until I come back outside. Thanks!

Indeed, I’d prefer a product, as I don’t quite have time for projects at the moment, but it would be a lot of fun 😃

True. Might have to invest in a mobile hotspot. there have been some with power meters built in, but they don’t talk to each other sadly.

I have one outlet, limited to probably 1500-1800watts, and two devices that are 1500watts. can run them at the same time. So I want it to kick power to the heater when the charger is done.
