Abstract: One embodiment provides a remotely controllable gas engine replacement device including a housing, a battery receptacle coupled to the housing, the battery receptacle configured to removably receive a battery pack, a motor located within the housing, a power take-off shaft receiving torque from the motor and protruding from a side of the housing, a power switching network configured to selectively provide power from the battery pack to the motor, and one or more remote control device interfaces configured to communicate with the remote control device. The remotely controllable gas engine replacement device also includes an electronic processor coupled to the power switching network and the remote control device interface. The electronic processor configured to control the power switching network to rotate the motor, receive a control signal from the remote control device, and execute a responsive action to the control signal from the remote control device.

Abstract: A method for expanding features of a gas engine replacement device that drives power equipment including controlling, by an electronic processor of the gas engine replacement device, a power switching network to selectively provide power from a battery pack to rotate a motor of the gas engine replacement device. A module interface of the gas engine replacement device receives an external electronics module. A type of the external electronics module received by the module interface is detected by the electronic processor of the gas engine replacement device. The gas engine replacement device is configured by the electronic processor based on the type of the received external electronics module. The electronic processor communicates with the external electronics module via the module interface.
