    摘要: A rechargeable battery pack system includes a retention cage, a reserve power module, and a rechargeable battery pack. The retention cage is removably attachable over a battery compartment of a game controller. The reserve power module has first electrical contacts that contact battery contacts of the game controller for providing electrical power from the reserve power module to the game controller when the reserve power module is in the retention cage and the retention cage is attached to the game controller. The rechargeable battery pack has electrical contacts to contact second electrical contacts of the reserve power module for providing electrical power to the reserve power module and to the game controller, through the reserve power module. The reserve power module can uninterruptedly power the game controller when the depleted rechargeable battery pack is removed from the retention cage to be replaced by a charged rechargeable battery pack.
