An electrical device capable of emitting or absorbs energy relative a surrounding environment. The electrical device includes a housing, an interior volume defined in the housing, an energy sensor at least partially exposed to the surrounding environment, a first material having a first absorptivity, and a second material having a second absorptivity lower than the first absorptivity. The first material is nearer to the surrounding environment than the second material is at an energy sensor reading below a threshold energy range, and the first material is farther from the surrounding environment than the second material is at an energy sensor reading above the threshold energy range.

Structure with color-changing housing

A battery pack assembly includes a housing, a battery cell assembly, and a fan. The housing having a plurality of sides and defining an internal cavity. The battery cell assembly positioned in the internal cavity. The battery cell assembly includes a plurality of battery cells and a frame supporting the battery cells. The frame includes a first support member, a second support member, and a plurality of leg members connecting the first support member and the second support member. The first support member and the second support member each has a body extending between a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge. The body defines a plurality of openings configured to align with one of the battery cells. The fan is configured to circulate air within the housing and through the battery cell assembly.

Battery pack

A mobile power source that has a battery pack including at least two battery cell assemblies each having frame that has a first support member and a second support member, each of the first and second support members including a plurality of cylindrical recesses that receive the plurality of battery cells to support the battery cells. Bus bars are coupled to the first support member via injection molding and each is configured to electrically connect to at least two battery cells. The bus bars each include an elongated conductive body that has a base and fingers extending laterally away from the base. Each of the fingers extend within a first plane, and the base extends within a second plane that is parallel to the first plane and offset therefrom.
