Abstract

System boot-up can be enabled in low temperature environments. A laptop or other battery-powered computing device can include multiple batteries and a battery architecture that allows the multiple batteries to simultaneously discharge to thereby provide adequate power to boot the system in low temperature environments. The battery architecture may also allow a battery with a higher relative state of charge to charge another battery with a lower relative state of charge to thereby equalize the batteries' relative states of charge.
