摘要: A method for efficient battery usage in for portable devices. The method includes a service provider receiving a communication associated with a first device and a second device, wherein one of the first device and the second device is a sender of the communication and the other of the first device and the second device is an intended recipient of the communication. The service provider then determines that the first device is operating in an energy saving mode. The service provider may also determine that an emergency communication override feature for the first device has not been enabled. Upon determining that the first mobile device is operating in an energy saving mode and that an emergency communication override feature for the first device has not been enabled, the service provider determines not to send the communication to the intended recipient of the communication.

摘要: A monitoring system includes a capacitor can having one or more capacitors. The monitoring system includes an antenna. The monitoring system includes at least one sensor disposed within the capacitor can and configured to detect an operating characteristic associated with health of the one or more capacitors of the capacitor can. The monitoring system includes a processor configured to receive a first signal from the at least one sensor indicative of the operating characteristic. The processor is configured to send a second signal, via the antenna, indicative of a value of the operating characteristic to a receiving device outside of the capacitor can.

摘要: An automatic battery fluid level monitoring system is provided. The automatic monitoring system includes a fluid consumption algorithm, programmed into a microprocessor based motor controller, connected through a communications link to a microprocessor based battery charger. The battery charger is electrically connected to a flooded type battery as well as a power connection such as being plugged into an outlet, the electrical connection from an alternator, or the like. Once the fluid consumption algorithm indicates that the fluid level is too low, a battery fluid indicator is activated utilizing a visual and/or audio display. After the battery is refilled, a fluid added reset is triggered, which deactivates the battery fluid indicator. Additional embodiments include utilizing a wired or wireless connection to a remote fleet management system, as well as alternative vehicle performance rules wherein the vehicle performance parameters can be purposefully altered to effect the ongoing performance of the vehicle.

摘要: A relay (20) receives a battery information acquisition time from each battery module (10) and calculates measurement time differential information Δt, that is, a time difference between the battery information acquisition time as a reference and the battery information acquisition time of another battery module (10) among the received battery information acquisition times, for each battery module (10). A measurement time correction unit (115) of each battery module (10) corrects a measurement time by the measurement time differential information Δt, using the measurement time differential information Δt received from the relay (20) to adjust the battery information acquisition time of each battery module (10) to the same time.
