Power management module

A power distribution module is described, which controls the distribution of battery input power to a plurality of device outlet ports using sensors and relay switches. The power distribution module monitors the voltage, current, and/or power from, and/or temperature of, the module and its conductors. The power distribution module has smartphone management of its power outlet ports. So, the power distribution module as described, includes a housing including one or more power inlets, and a plurality of power outlets; a controller processor configured to receive data from sensors in relation to battery capacity and state of charge, and to receive data on power provided to the power outlets; one or more relays, configured to switch power on or off to one or more of the plurality of power outlets; wherein the controller is configured to switch the one or more relays on or off in response to calculations based on selected threshold conditions. Methods of distributing power with a module based on calculations of power and current and temperature relative to selected thresholds are also described.
