Abstract:
An apparatus is provided which comprises: a first circuitry to estimate variation of an internal impedance of a battery; a second circuitry to estimate a high power that the battery can supply for a first time-period, based on the estimated variation of the impedance of the battery; and a third circuitry to facilitate operation of one or more components of the apparatus in accordance with the estimated high power for the first time-period.
Abstract:
A method and system for intelligent battery charging rate management. Some embodiments of a method include determining a time period available for charging a rechargeable battery from an initial charge state to a final charge state. A second time period is determined, the second time period being an amount of time required to charge the battery from the initial charge state to the final charge state using a first charging process, with the first charging process including a first current value. If the first time period is greater than the second time period, then a reduced second current value is determined that is sufficient to charge the battery to the final charge state, and the battery is charged with a current of the second current value.
Abstract:
According to some embodiments, battery charge management using a scheduling application is disclosed. A first parameter may be received from a scheduling application running on a mobile computing device having a battery pack. Based on at least the first parameter and battery pack data, a required charge percentage for the battery pack may be determined and the remaining capacity of the battery pack may be determined. If the remaining capacity of the battery pack is less than the required charge percentage, a charge termination voltage may be determined and the battery pack may be charged to the charge termination voltage.
Abstract:
In some examples, a control unit is configured to consider battery heat. The control unit is adapted to provide power from a battery to a system during a peak power mode that includes peak power and off-peak power, and consider heat balance in the battery during the peak power mode by providing peak power so that heat of the battery corresponds to a reference condition heat of the battery.
Abstract:
A computerized management system is provided. The system includes a routine for accessing journal entries stored in a memory and an automated journal entry generating routine for generating journal entries for a first set-of-books and for a second set-of-books based on the accessed journal entries. The journal entries for the first set-of-books are in accordance with a first reporting standard and the journal entries for the second set-of-books are in accordance with a second, different reporting standard.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for short circuit detection for batteries. Some embodiments of a method include receiving a battery pack in a system, where the battery pack is rechargeable and includes multiple battery cell blocks, each cell block including one or more battery cells. The voltages of the plurality of cell blocks are monitored. Upon shutting down the system, the voltages of the plurality of cell blocks are logged to generate a set of logged voltage values. Upon restarting the system, the current voltage values of the cell blocks are measured. A determination whether any of the battery cells of the battery pack has developed a short circuit is made based at least in part on a comparison of the current voltage values with the set of the logged voltage values.
Abstract:
A vehicle lamp device in which the inside of a lamp unit is communicated with the outside while maintaining a water-proof property of the lamp unit itself so that generation of water droplets is prevented. The lamp unit constituted by a lamp body for housing a large number of light-emitting diodes arranged at predetermined intervals in a transverse direction of a vehicle body and a front face lens covering a front opening portion of the lamp body incorporated in a spoiler disposed on an upper surface of a rear end portion of a roof of the vehicle body so that the front face lens is exposed to the outside through an opening portion formed in a rear end surface of the spoiler. A rubber bushing is disposed in the spoiler, and lead wires of the lamp unit are led out to the outside of the lamp unit through a lead-out portion which projects from a back surface of the lamp body and are inserted through lead-wire insertion holes formed in the rubber bushing. A tube is integrally provided with the rubber bushing with a free end of the tube being connected to the lead-out portion. Air holes are formed through the rubber bushing having ends communicating with the tube.
