Abstract: A technique is performed on a vehicle having a lithium battery and a temperature control apparatus. The technique involves receiving a temperature reading from temperature sensing circuitry. The technique further involves performing a comparison operation that compares the temperature reading from the temperature sensing circuitry to a target temperature range. The technique further involves, in response to a result of the comparison operation indicating that the temperature reading is outside the target temperature range, automatically providing electric power from an external battery charger to the temperature control apparatus of the vehicle. The external battery charger is distinct and separate from the vehicle. Additionally, the temperature control apparatus adjusts the temperature of the lithium battery of the vehicle in response to the electric power automatically provided from the external battery charger (e.g.

Abstract: A parking meter receives data indicative of a remote payment being completed and displays an amount of time purchased by the remote payment for a parking session. The parking meter determines an amount of time remaining in the parking session and powers down at least a portion of a meter communication subsystem subsequent to receiving the data indicative of the remote payment being completed. The parking meter wakes up the powered down portion of the communication subsystem upon determining that the amount of time remaining is below a threshold time, and can receive an indication of additional time being paid for remotely, and can update the displayed time remaining to reflect the additional time.
