Systems and methods for remote power tool control are provided. In one example, a battery pack is coupled to a power tool device. The battery pack includes a pack transceiver and a pack electronic processor. The pack electronic processor is coupled to the pack transceiver and is configured to determine that the power tool device is remotely controllable. The pack electronic processor is further configured to receive, wirelessly via a pack transceiver of the battery pack, a remote control command from a mobile device, and to provide the remote control command to the power tool device. The system further includes a tool electronic processor of the power tool device in communication with the pack electronic processor. The tool electronic processor is configured to control the power tool device to perform an action specified by the remote control command in response to receiving the remote control command.

A battery pack includes a housing and a plurality of battery cells. A printed circuit board is supported within the housing and is electrically coupled to a plurality of electrical terminals configured to mate with a plurality of electrical terminals of the device. A cell strap in electrical communication with at least one of the plurality of battery cells and in electrical communication with the printed circuit board. A fuse is coupled to the printed circuit board. A heat shield is coupled to the fuse. The heat shield is configured to inhibit heat transfer between the fuse and other components of the battery pack.

Interface of a power tool

A device that includes a controller having a processing unit and a memory. The device includes an enable circuit. The enable circuit prevents the device from operating (e.g., discharging current and/or receiving charging current) until the enable circuit is activated. The enable circuit includes an activation component (e.g., a near-field communication ['NFC'] circuit). The activation component is configured or operable to cause the device to become enabled when the activation component is activated by an external enabling device.
