Abstract: A battery-charging system configured to charge a battery of a device to a nominal voltage includes a load-detection circuit, memory storing controller-executable instructions, and a controller configured to execute the instructions, which cause the controller to detect a load coupled to the battery above a first threshold load using the load-detection circuit, and control the battery-charging circuit to charge the battery to a high voltage in response to detecting the load above the first threshold load, wherein the high voltage is above the nominal voltage. The controller can be configured to execute other instructions, such as outputting a notification that the battery is being charged to a high voltage and/or controlling the battery-charging circuit to discharge the battery in response to detecting a reduced load or a user command.
