Abstract: In one embodiment a deep submersible light includes a substantially spherical exterior housing made of metal, the housing having a hollow interior and a first aperture extending through a front side of the housing. The first aperture may communicate with the hollow interior of the housing and an LED may be mounted inside the first aperture adjacent to the hollow interior of the housing. A transparent window may extend across the first aperture, and a seal may be situated between a periphery of the window and the housing adjacent the first aperture for providing resistance to the entry of water into the hollow interior of the housing. An electrical connector may be disposed on an aft section of the housing and may be configured to be readily field serviceable. The light may further include an internal water barrier between a connector wiring area and an inner driver element of the lighting element.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a battery and a method of making the same. The battery includes first and second metal substrates, a first solid-state and/or thin-film battery cell on the first metal substrate, a second solid-state and/or thin-film battery cell on the second metal substrate, and a hermetic seal in a peripheral region of the first and second metal substrates. The first and second battery cells are between the first and second metal substrates, and face each other. The method includes respectively forming first and second solid-state and/or thin-film battery cells on first and second metal substrates, placing the second battery cell on the first battery cell so that the first and second battery cells are between the first and second metal substrates, and hermetically sealing the first and second battery cells in a peripheral region of the first and second metal substrates.

Abstract: A solid-state battery and a method of making the same are disclosed. The battery includes a base frame or support, first and second exterior contacts on the base frame/support, stacked solid-state battery unit cells, first and second electrical connections, and encapsulation in contact with the base frame/support and covering the solid-state battery unit cells and the electrical connections. Each stacked solid-state battery unit cell is on a metal substrate and has exposed cathode and anode current collectors. The electrical connections respectively electrically connect the exposed cathode and anode current collectors to the first and second exterior contacts. The method includes forming the stacked solid-state battery unit cells on the base frame/support, forming the exterior contacts on the base frame/support, electrically connecting the exposed cathode and anode current collectors to the respective exterior contacts, and encapsulating the solid-state battery unit cells and the electrical connections.
