Abstract: A battery pack power transfer adaptor and a battery pack system that includes a battery pack adaptor. The adaptor enables a battery pack to provide high level power transfers to a variety of devices and to receive high level power transfers from a variety of power sources. The adaptor includes a battery pack interface to enable the adaptor to mechanically and electrically connect to the battery pack. The adaptor is able to transfer power at a variety of levels dependent upon the device to which it is attached.

Abstract: The present directed to a cordless power tool system including a plurality of cordless power tools, a plurality of fixed voltage and multi-voltage battery packs and a plurality of battery pack chargers. The battery packs include circuitry to indicate various parameters about the battery pack and communicate this indication to the power tools in order to enable the power tools to alter their motor output schemes to improve performance. The indication may include whether the battery pack is a fixed voltage battery pack or a multi-voltage battery pack and when the multi-voltage battery pack is in a first configuration or a second configuration.

Abstract: This application relates to a system and method for wirelessly charging battery packs. More particularly, the application relates to a system and method for wirelessly charging battery packs stored in a container. In one implementation, the system includes a sealable storage box having a transmitter for transmitting RF power to at least one battery pack stored in the storage box.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a power tool and multi-function battery pack system having a dual latch latching assembly for affixing the battery pack to the power tool.

Abstract: A power tool system includes a first power tool having a first power tool rated voltage, a second power tool having a second power tool rated voltage that is different from the first power tool rated voltage, and a first battery pack coupleable to the first power tool and to the second power tool. The first battery pack is switchable between a first configuration having a first battery pack rated voltage that corresponds to the first power tool rated voltage such that the first battery pack enables operation of the first power tool, and a second configuration having a convertible battery pack rated voltage that corresponds to the second power tool rated voltage such that the battery pack enables operation of the second power tool.
