A method of discharging a battery assembly used to power at least part of an object includes detecting when power to the object is turned off, detecting, with aid of a timer, an amount of time elapsed since the power to the object is turned off, and initiating a controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly when the amount of time exceeds a threshold length of time. The controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly is performed by a self-discharging circuit electrically coupled to the battery assembly.

Battery management system

A hybrid power system comprises a power controller adapted to be in communication with a first power source, a second power source, and a load. The power controller is configured to: control discharging of the first power source without permitting discharging of the second power source to power the load when a power drawn by the load is greater than a predetermined threshold power for a time period; and control discharging of the second power source to power the load when the power drawn by the load is greater than the predetermined threshold power starting from when the time period ends.

UAV hybrid power systems and methods

Systems, methods, and devices of managing a battery assembly used to power an object are provided to discharge a battery assembly for a safe and long-term storage. A controlled self-discharge of the battery assembly may be initiated when the power to the object is turned off for a certain length of time or the battery assembly is not in use for a threshold length of time. The controlled self-discharge may be terminated if the battery assembly reaches a threshold voltage value or the battery is in use again during the self-discharge.

A battery, a thermal management device of the battery, and an unmanned aerial vehicle having the battery are provided. The thermal management device comprises a heat conducting housing having a receiving cavity and configured to divide the receiving cavity into a plurality of cell compartments for receiving cells, and a heat conducting shelf mounted within the receiving cavity and configured to be in contact with at least one of the cells to conduct heat generated by the at least one of the cells. The heat conducting shelf is thermally connected with an inner wall of the receiving cavity and configured to conduct heat in the heat conducting shelf to the heat conducting housing.
