Abstract: A battery pack containing a plurality of battery cells having a housing and defining an opening within the housing and a battery control module configured to be disposed within the opening of the battery pack. The battery control module may contain circuitry for controlling a connection between the battery pack and an electric load or electric source and for controlling the charging of the battery cells. The circuitry within the battery control module is connected by rigid conductors, such as conductive traces on a circuit board or bus bars rather than flexible wire cables. The battery control module may be configured to be removed for serving the battery pack without removing the battery pack housing. The battery pack may further include a battery voltage monitor configured to monitor a terminal voltage of each battery cell and send a digital signal representing the voltage to the battery control module.
