Abstract: The battery pack including a battery group in which a plurality of secondary batteries are connected in series; a detector that detects a charging and discharging current value flowing in the battery group and a voltage value of the battery group in a time-division manner by switching between the current value and the voltage value using an electronic circuit; and a controller/operator that performs operation and control using the current value and the voltage value detected by the detector. In the battery pack, the detector detects current values before and after the voltage value of the battery group is detected, and the controller/operator determines that the voltage value of the battery group is influenced by the peak discharge power when at least one of the current values exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A controlling and computing portion for controlling charge or discharge of a secondary battery comprises an operation mode setting portion for selectively setting a high capacity mode using a first voltage or a long life mode using a second voltage lower than the first voltage, a remaining capacity calculating portion for calculating a relative state of charge from a remaining capacity of the secondary battery and a full charge capacity, a cycle number calculating portion for calculating a cycle number from a calculation result of the remaining capacity calculating portion, and a charge end voltage setting portion for decreasing the first voltage based on the cycle number, and setting the second voltage at a voltage left by subtracting a predetermined voltage from the first voltage in a case where the first voltage becomes equal to or less than a voltage obtained by adding a predetermined value to the second voltage.
