Abstract: A thermally shielded receptacle for a rechargeable battery. The thermally shielded receptacle can include a material having a heat deflection rate of greater than 50 degrees Celsius to contain a catastrophic runaway of one or more of a plurality of individual battery cells. The thermally shielded receptacle can include material sized and shaped to receive the plurality of individual battery cells and separate each of the plurality of individual battery cells from adjacent individual battery cells.

Abstract: A technology for a wireless transfer station that is operable to detect interference during a wireless transfer of energy or data between wireless transfer stations. A transfer load on a wireless transfer coil of a wireless transfer station can be monitored during a wireless transfer of energy or data from the wireless transfer station to another wireless transfer station. A change in the transfer load that exceeds a threshold value can be detected. The wireless transfer of energy or data by the wireless transfer station can be adjusted using the wireless transfer coil based on the detected change in the transfer load.

Abstract: A technology for a wireless transfer station that is operable to wirelessly transfer data or energy. Energy or data can be wirelessly transferred to another wireless transfer station using one or more wireless transfer coils. An amount of energy or data transferred to the other wireless transfer station can be dynamically adjusted by adjusting the one or more wireless transfer coils. Data can be communicated to the other wireless transfer station using a communication module.

Abstract: A technology for a wireless transfer station that is operable to wirelessly transfer energy. Energy can be wirelessly transferred with a device or another wireless transfer station using an energy transfer platform having at least one surface. The energy transfer platform can comprise a plurality of wireless transfer coils, wherein the plurality of wireless transfer coils include at least one resonant charging coil and at least one inductive charging coil. Controlling a plurality of wireless transfer coils using a power management module.
