Abstract: An integrated electric power take-off includes an electric motor that is driven by an electric motor of an electric vehicle, a hydraulic pump or a similar device that is adapted to operate a rotatably driven accessory provided on the electric vehicle, and a geartrain system connected between the electric motor and the hydraulic pump. The geartrain system is an integral portion of the integrated electric power take-off that permits an optimal selection of the electric motor and the hydraulic pump to be made for each specific application.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for a multi-purpose thermal component are provided. The system can include a thermal component to interface with a battery and an electrical component, and a controller in electrical communication with the thermal component. The controller can cause the thermal component to charge the electrical component. The controller can cause the thermal component to transfer thermal energy with the battery.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an energy storage device having a port, a motion sensor, an ambient light sensor, a status indicator having one or more segments, and one or more processors coupled to memory. The energy storage device can determine a state of the energy storage device, detect a movement, and detect an ambient light level. The energy storage device can illuminate a status indicator. The processors determine the brightness for the number of the one or more segments based on the ambient light level, and determine the number of the segments to illuminate based on the state of the energy storage device.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include systems, vehicles, and computer-implemented methods for maintaining the operational condition of a battery system incorporated in a vehicle or otherwise stored and, based on weather information, to adjust reserve capacity in the battery system prevent damage as a result of weather conditions.

Abstract: Various disclosed embodiments include illustrative control units, systems, and methods. In an illustrative embodiment, a control unit includes a processor and non-transitory computer-readable media that stores computer-executable instructions configured to cause the processor to determine a start charging time, receive a battery temperature value, and instruct the thermal control system to start heating the battery responsive to the start charging time and the battery temperature value in an energy saving way.

Abstract: A battery cell assembly is provided. The battery cell assembly includes a polymeric foam container having first, second, third side walls defining an interior region. The first, second, and third side walls have first, second, and third grooves, respectively, extending therein. The battery cell assembly further includes a first battery cell having a first rectangular-shaped body with first, second, and third peripheral ledge portions. The first battery cell is disposed in the interior region such that first, second, and third peripheral ledge portions thereof are disposed in the first, second, and third grooves, respectively, in the first, second, and third side walls, respectively.
