When I use my welder outside my car, it gives me the option of using an identical welder “nearby.” There is no other welder. Selecting this option doesn’t drain my welder’s charge, doesn’t drain charge from my car battery or storage battery, and doesn’t drain batteries on a nearby square or in my inventory.
