  • Publication number: 20250093870
    Abstract: The disclosed system obtains a current time and a time fence indicating a daily time period and determines whether the current time is within the time fence. Upon determining that the current time is outside the time fence, the system operates the battery in a low-power mode, where the low-power mode is configured to conserve power associated with the battery. When the battery is in the low-power mode and the system detects an unusual operation associated with the vehicle, the system generates a notification of the unusual operation and sends the notification of the unusual operation to a server.
