System and method of receiving charge from multiple entities

A system, comprising:

• one or more adapters;
• a first entity;
• a second entity;
• and
• a host smart charge receiver that comprises:
• a processor storing instructions in non-transitory memory that, when executed, causes the processor to:
• determine presence of the one or more adapters electrically coupled to a host vehicle;
• recognize at least one of the first entity and the second entity that are electrically coupled to the host vehicle through the one or more adapters;
• establish a connection between the host vehicle, the first entity, and the second entity;
• analyze at least one of a first charge and a second charge received from the first entity and the second entity, respectively;
• select at least one of the first entity and the second entity for charging one or more first battery packs of the host vehicle based on at least one of a charging specification of the host vehicle, a charging requirement, and a cost of charging;
• and
• provide an optimal charge to the one or more first battery packs of the host vehicle.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a sequence of instructions, which when executed by a processor causes:

• determining presence of one or more adapters electrically coupled to a host vehicle;
• recognizing at least one of a first entity and a second entity that are electrically coupled to the host vehicle through the one or more adapters;
• establishing a connection between the host vehicle, the first entity, and the second entity;
• analyzing at least one of a first charge and a second charge received from the first entity and the second entity, respectively;
• selecting at least one of the first entity and the second entity for charging one or more first battery packs of the host vehicle based on at least one of a charging specification of the host vehicle, a charging requirement, and a cost of charging;
• and
• providing an optimal charge to the one or more first battery packs of the host vehicle.
