  "textContent": "Techniques for power source management in an information handling system (IHS) include detecting connection of multiple power sources to the IHS through respective DC adapters, obtaining data indicating the capabilities of each power source, obtaining data indicating a system load for the IHS, and generating, based on the obtained data, a load management plan specifying a target combined input power amount for power supplied by the multiple power sources and respective amounts of electrical power to be supplied by a single selected power source or by multiple selected power sources. The techniques also include combining the power supplied by each of the selected power sources into a combined input power and supplying the combined input power to the IHS. Prior to the combining, the voltage of the power supplied by a power source may be stepped up or down to a common voltage, or a power source may be de-rated.",
