Abstract
A device charging system including a battery module and a central charging station. The battery module is configured to supply a type of power to at least one load device. The central charging station is in communication with the battery module. The central charging station includes an electronic processor configured to define a virtual boundary, determine a location of the battery module, determine, based the location of the battery module, whether the battery module is within the virtual boundary, and transmit a command to the battery module causing the battery module to stop supplying power to the load device when the battery module is not within the virtual boundary.
