Abstract:
A power control system for providing a predetermined power output from a battery system comprising:(i) output means for delivering power from the system to a load, (ii) control means adapted to be connected to the battery system to sense pre-selected operating parameters of the battery system in a first mode of operation, and in a second mode of operation to provide power from the battery system to the output means, (iii) first capacitor means adapted to store a predetermined quantity of power when said control means is in the first mode of operation, said first capacitor means connected between the control means and the battery system and adapted to supply its stored power to the battery system in response to a command signal from the control means when the control means is in the second mode of operation, (iv) second capacitor means adapted to store a predetermined quantity of power when said control means is in a first mode of operation, said second capacitor means connected between the control means and the output means and adapted to supply its stored power to the output means in response to a command signal from the control means when the control means is in the second mode of operation.
