Hey all, I have a dumb question. My garage only has 1 electrical outlet. There is a chest freezer and a workbench light plugged into it right now. But I recently purchased a fridge to store my homebrew in and threw it in the garage as well. When the freezer and fridge kick on together it trips the circuit breaker. Short of calling an electrician, is there some sort of device that will allow me to plug all this stuff into one circuit? Like some sort of UPS that provides supplemental battery power when they both kick on or relay that ensures they are never both on at the same time? I'm sure with all you electric brewers out there, you've run into circuit breaker problems. I'm not looking to spend an arm and a leg here, but the fridge needs to stay in the garage, and there's no way I could ever justify calling an electrician to wire me an outlet for a beer fridge. I'd be killed. Thanks for your help guys.
