Abstract: A load source that includes: a housing, a battery integrally disposed within the housing, a load source computing device, and a battery management system associated with the battery. The load source is configured for one or both of: the battery management system configured to identify a first error based at least in part on a first set of data associated with the load source and report the first error to the load source computing device to cause a change in operation of the load source, and the load source computing device configured to identify a second error based at least in part on a second set of data associated with the load source and report the second error to the battery management system to cause a change in operation of the battery.

Abstract: A method of determining an operating configuration of a water heater that includes: a power cord connected to a receptacle; a housing; a battery disposed within the housing, and a water tank configured to hold a volume of water and having one or more heating elements. The method includes obtaining power availability data; and determining an operating configuration including one of: a full power configuration where the water tank operates at a maximum power greater than 120V input voltage based on power from both the receptacle and the battery or power solely from the battery, and a reduced power configuration where the water tank operates at a reduced power less than the maximum power, based on power solely from the receptacle or power solely from the battery.

Abstract: A method of determining an operating configuration of a stove having: a cooktop having a plurality of heating regions; a power cord connected to a receptacle; a housing; a battery disposed within the housing, where the obtained stove use data comprises information regarding use of at least one of the heating regions of the cooktop. The method includes determining an operating configuration based at least in part on obtained stove use data and obtained power availability data, the determined operating configuration including one of: a full power configuration where the heating regions operate at a maximum power greater than 120V input voltage based on power from both the receptacle and the battery or power solely from the battery, and a reduced power configuration where the heating regions operate at a reduced power less than the maximum power, based on power solely from the receptacle or power solely from the battery.

Abstract: A circular saw blade indexing assembly includes a base and a circular saw blade mounting assembly connected to the base and having a saw hub configured to support a circular saw blade. The circular saw blade indexing assembly includes an indexing mechanism connected to the base and having a feed finger disposed at a radial distance from the saw hub, the feed finger configured to rotate the circular saw blade about the saw hub between a first arc position and a second arc position. The circular saw blade indexing assembly includes a radius adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a relative longitudinal position between the saw hub of the circular saw blade mounting assembly and the feed finger of the indexing mechanism.

Abstract: A circular saw blade indexing assembly includes a frame and a circular saw blade mounting assembly coupled to the frame. The circular saw blade mounting assembly includes a shaft configured to support a circular saw blade and that extends along a longitudinal axis defined by the circular saw blade mounting assembly. The circular saw blade indexing assembly includes an indexing mechanism rotatably coupled to the circular saw blade mounting assembly and having a feed finger disposed at a radial distance from the longitudinal axis. The indexing mechanism is configured to rotate about the longitudinal axis between a first arc position and a second arc position to rotate a saw blade between the first arc position and the second arc position.

Abstract: An interactive television system and method for generating video programming combined with triggers and then, in turn, for viewing that video programming as the triggers present information associated with the triggers. When triggered by the viewer, the remote control will generate a request using a user interface coupled to at least one of the set top box or the television, the request being based on a user selection of the presented information associated with the triggers; that request will retrieve information at the request processing system based on the generated request; and present the retrieved information that is based on the request at a user computer system coupled to the request processing system.

Abstract: An interactive television system and method for generating advertising combined with triggers and then, in turn, for viewing that advertising as the triggers present information associated with the triggers. When triggered by the viewer, the request will retrieve information at the request processing system based on the generated request; and present the retrieved information that is based on the request at a user computer system.
