Abstract: A battery pack assembly includes a housing, a battery cell assembly, and a fan. The housing having a plurality of sides and defining an internal cavity. The battery cell assembly positioned in the internal cavity. The battery cell assembly includes a plurality of battery cells and a frame supporting the battery cells. The frame includes a first support member, a second support member, and a plurality of leg members connecting the first support member and the second support member. The first support member and the second support member each has a body extending between a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge. The body defines a plurality of openings configured to align with one of the battery cells. The fan is configured to circulate air within the housing and through the battery cell assembly.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a portable power supply comprising a housing having a plurality of sides defining an internal cavity. The portable power supply further includes a battery cell assembly positioned in the internal cavity. The battery cell assembly includes a frame and a plurality of battery cells arranged in the frame. Each of the battery cells includes a cathode end, an anode end opposite the cathode end, and a body extending between the cathode end and the anode end. A thermistor is disposed on a respective battery cell of the plurality of battery cells. The thermistor is located nearer to the anode end than to the cathode end of the battery cell.

Abstract: A portable power supply includes an internal power source, a thermal management system configured to control a temperature of one or more internal components of the portable power supply, a power input unit configured to charge the internal power source, a power output unit configured to provide power output by the internal power source, a first sensing circuit configured to detect the temperature of the one or more internal components, a secondary power source, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a first signal from the first sensing circuit, enable the thermal management system based on the temperature of the one or more internal components, and enable charging of the internal power source based on the temperature of the one or more internal components.

Abstract: An electrical device capable of emitting or absorbs energy relative a surrounding environment. The electrical device includes a housing, an interior volume defined in the housing, an energy sensor at least partially exposed to the surrounding environment, a first material having a first absorptivity, and a second material having a second absorptivity lower than the first absorptivity. The first material is nearer to the surrounding environment than the second material is at an energy sensor reading below a threshold energy range, and the first material is farther from the surrounding environment than the second material is at an energy sensor reading above the threshold energy range.

Abstract: A battery pack includes a frame member. The frame member includes a cell receiving recess, an adhesive introduction port, an adhesive passage, and a ventilation port. The cell receiving recess is able to receive a cell. The adhesive introduction port is able to receive an adhesive therethrough. The adhesive passage extends at least partially about the cell receiving recess. The adhesive passage is in fluid communication with the adhesive introduction port and with the cell receiving recess. The ventilation port is in fluid communication with the adhesive passage.
