Abstract

A vehicle onboard power (VOP) system is for a vehicle. The VOP system includes a power source, an outlet electrically connected to the power source, a processor electrically connected to the power source, and a memory. The memory has instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including determining the vehicle is in an OFF state, detecting a change in a load profile associated with the outlet, and activating a vehicle alert response based on the change in the load profile.
