A battery cell includes a first power tab and a first conducting wire. The first power tab may include a proximal end connected to the battery cell, and may provide a first output terminal for the battery cell. The first conducting wire may be connected to a distal end of the first power tab, and may be encircled by the first power tab. The first conducting wire may connect with a power circuit board to provide power from the battery cell.

Information handling system with high current battery planar tab interconnect

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, an information handling system may include at least one information handling resource and a power system for delivering electrical energy to the at least one information handling resource. The power system may include a battery and a direct-current (DC) input for receiving a DC power source for delivering electrical energy to the at least one information handling resource and charging the battery. The power system may be configured to, based on at least one of an operational state the battery and a power mode of the information handling system, configure an input power draw limit via the DC input.

Systems and methods for accepting variable input power from an external power source

A method, an information handling system, and a thermal management system providing a power and thermal solution are provided. In accordance with at least one embodiment, the information handling system includes a battery having a low temperature cell configured to operate over a lower temperature range and a high temperature cell configured to operate over a higher temperature range, a computational electronic circuit operable to dissipate waste heat as a consequence of performing computation, and a thermal conductor thermally coupled to the high temperature cell and to the computational electronic circuit but not to the low temperature cell.

System and method for temperature-adaptive thermal management using different temperature-optimized battery cells

Systems and methods for remotely applying battery management policies based on local user behavior. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: receive a battery management policy from a remote server; and apply the battery management policy to the IHS, wherein the battery management policy is selected based upon a local user's behavior.

A battery pack bussing plate, method, and system for providing battery vendor identification capable of surviving a thermal failure event of a battery pack for an information handling system. By receiving a designation of a distinctive current director shape of an extended current director, the extended current director comprising a current director with at least one extension at an angle to a line between a first terminus of the current director and a second terminus of the current director, the distinctive director shape adapted to uniquely identify a battery pack vendor, and transforming sheet metal stock into a battery pack bussing plate, the battery pack bussing plate defining the extended current director, a battery vendor can be identified from a battery pack even after thermal failure of the battery pack.

Systems and methods that may be implemented to monitor and record (store) information related to environmental conditions, operating conditions and/or events to which a battery-powered information handling system has been exposed while the battery powered information handling system is not powered. In one embodiment this stored environmental, system operating and/or event information may be made available to one or more system programmable integrated circuits at a following system restart or operating system (OS) boot. Such stored information may be used, for example, to determine one or more actions during a subsequent system restart or OS reboot, and/or to better enable root cause analysis of no-POST (power on self-test) type failures.

Systems and methods for event tracking and health assessment of battery-powered information handling systems

A power storage adapter may use a power delivery contract establishment method when supplying electrical power to portable information handling systems when the amount of electrical power the power storage adapter is able to supply is less that the amount the portable information handling systems require. In particular, the power storage adapter may avoid supplying electrical power to one of the portable information handling systems that has gotten what is needs and may switch to supplying more electrical power to one of the other portable information handling systems that has not received what it requires.
