Abstract: Utility vehicles include ground engaging members, a frame supported by the ground engaging members, a motor supported by the frame operably coupled to the ground engaging members, and a battery configured to provide electrical power to the motor. The battery may be removable and configured to be easily charged by outside power sources such as generators and external batteries. A charger may be configured to receive instructions to charge the battery using a specific charger operating characteristic. The vehicle may also include a variety of accessory ports configured to electrically couple to accessories that use AC or DC power.

Abstract: An elongated optical fiber apparatus for transmitting a light signal toward a first end of the apparatus situated within a fluid to be analyzed, and for transmitting a returning light signal that is indicative of a specified characteristic of the fluid toward a second end of the apparatus that is situated outside the fluid. The optical fiber apparatus includes a light conductive cable capable of transmitting light with a hole formed in its first end. Disposed substantially entirely within this hole is a reactive element that reacts with the fluid to alter a property of the light that is indicative of a specified characteristic of the fluid.
