  • Patent number: 12272956
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an auxiliary-power-supply unit includes a connector and a controller configured to power a microgrid from a battery in response to determining that the connector is plugged into an outlet of the microgrid, and that the microgrid is uncoupled from a power grid. For example, the connector plugs into a wall outlet of a microgrid in, e.g., a home, and provides, from the battery during a power outage, auxiliary power to the microgrid and, therefore, provides auxiliary power to one or more devices, such as appliances, lights, computers, or televisions, that are connected to the microgrid.

  • Patent number: 11081746
    Abstract: A method and system provide a plurality of power cell modules. The power cell modules can be stacked together such that they are electrically connected and share a collective multi-voltage bus. Electronic appliances can be connected to one of the power cell modules to be powered by all of the connected power cell modules. Power cell modules can be easily added or removed from the bank without interrupting the supply of power to the electronic appliance.
