A predictive energy monitoring system which, during discharge, accounts for changes in available energy remaining as a result of changes in battery environmental temperature, changes in energy used by systems which cycle on and off, and which provides a user “What-if” capability to predict energy availability time remaining by changing systems in use. The present invention also covers the reporting of re-charge completion against multiple re-charge goals. The battery monitoring system includes a non-volatile memory, sensors, a processor that receives inputs from the sensors and receives inputs from a user through a touch screen graphic user interface, the processor then makes calculations responsive to sensor inputs and user inputs, and supplies data to a display for presenting a plurality of screen images representing the results of the calculations.

A vehicle battery charger and a vehicle battery charging system are described and illustrated, and can include a controller enabling a user to enter a time of day at which the vehicle battery charger or system begins and/or ends charging of the vehicle battery. The vehicle battery charger can be separate from the vehicle, can be at least partially integrated into the vehicle, can include a transmitter and/or a receiver capable of communication with a controller that is remote from the vehicle and vehicle charger, and can be controlled by a user or another party (e.g., a power utility) to control battery charging based upon a time of day, cost of power, or other factors.

ASSEMBLY AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ACCUMULATORS IN WORKSTATIONS, presenting a system intended for battery control in radio-base stations rack comprising a processing center which controls a switching system, batteries, electromagnetic locks and sensors, in order to prevent non-authorized actions of such batteries inside the racks from occurring.

A battery management system includes a microcontroller unit which transmits and receives communications information through a communications input/output terminal, a fault generator unit which generates fault information and transmits the fault information through a fault information output terminal, and a battery cell monitoring unit which is coupled to the communications input/output terminal and the fault information output terminal and diagnoses an operation of internal function based on the fault information transmitted from the fault generator unit and outputs an internal diagnosis result value to the microcontroller unit.
