Abstract
A battery pack may include a housing, a battery in the housing, a first switch connected to the battery in the housing, a current detector, and a controller. The current detector configured to detect a current flowing to the battery, the current detector being in the housing. The controller configured to control the first switch to switch to a conductive state to flow the current to the battery if the current flowing to the battery detected by the current detector is higher than a first threshold value, and control the first switch to switch to a shut-off state to interrupt the current to the battery if the current flowing to the battery detected by the current detector is equal to or less than the first threshold value, the controller being in the housing.
