Abstract: A power control circuit is configured to perform one or both of: receive a first power signal comprising a first voltage and receive a second power signal comprising the first voltage. The power control circuit is also configured to perform one or both of receive a third power signal comprising a second voltage; and generate, using a power converter based on the first power signal, a fourth power signal comprising the second voltage. Additionally, the power control circuit is also configured to charge, using the first power signal, a first capacitor assembly to prevent a magnitude of a first inrush current from exceeding a threshold inrush current magnitude and charge, using one or both of the third power signal and the fourth power signal, a second capacitor assembly to prevent a magnitude of a second inrush current from exceeding the threshold inrush current magnitude.

Abstract: A cell carrier for a battery module, a battery module, and a method for assembling a battery module. The battery module includes a plurality of pairs of battery cells and the cell carrier. The cell carrier includes a plurality of recesses, each including a first recess portion including a first sidewall portion and a first bottom portion, and a second recess portion including a second sidewall portion and a second bottom portion. The first bottom portion and the second bottom portion of each recess include a shared cutout. For each pair of battery cells, a first end of a first battery cell is coupled to the first recess portion and a first end of a second battery cell is coupled to the second recess portion of a respective recess.

Abstract: A battery system having busbars integrated with a tote is provided. The battery system can include a first pin located on a busbar or a tote and a first receptacle on the busbar or the tote. The first receptacle can include a first opening having a first size in a first direction that is greater than or equal to a first size of the first opening in a second direction. A second pin and a second receptacle can be located on the busbar or the tote. The second receptacle can include a second opening having a second size in the first direction that is less than or equal to a second size of the second opening in the second direction to align the busbar with the tote via the first pin inserted into the first receptacle and the second pin inserted into the second receptacle.

Abstract: The apparatus can include a busbar and a nut plate. The busbar can include a tab region. The tab region can define one or more openings. The nut plate can be configured to couple with the tab region of the busbar. One or more openings in the nut plate can align with the one or more openings of the tab region. The nut plate can have a planar shape. At least a portion of a face of the nut plate can couple with a planar face of the tab region of the busbar.

Abstract: System for adaptive non-linear light dimming of electro-optical devices comprises main transistor, resistance element coupled to drain of main transistor, light-emitting bank including at least one light-emitting device, and luminance adjustment circuitry coupled to source of main transistor. Luminance adjustment circuitry causes input voltage to the system to have a non-linear relationship with current through light-emitting bank. Luminance adjustment circuitry includes slope-point components coupled in parallel. When a first predetermined voltage level is supplied to the system, the first slope-point component allows a first predetermined amount of current to flow to the light-emitting bank, and when a second predetermined voltage level is supplied to the system, the first slope component allows the first predetermined amount of current to flow to the light-emitting bank and the second slope-point component allows a second predetermined amount of current flow to the light-emitting bank.
