Abstract:
A power control system includes a power converter and a controller to lengthen operational time for devices powered by batteries in low temperature environments. When a battery provides reduced voltage to due to cold temperatures, yet still has sufficient energy stored within the battery, a power converter may be activated to boost the voltage such that a load can be operated. When the power converter is not needed, the delivery of power from the battery to the load may bypass the power converter. A controller may determine if the reduced voltage from the battery is due to temperature or low energy storage in some embodiments.

Claim (Index 1):
A power control system comprising:\n a power converter; and a controller including:\n a first input to receive a battery temperature value of a battery; \n a second input to receive a value of a load's voltage requirement; \n wherein the controller determines whether internal cells of the battery can support the load's voltage requirement without intervention, the determination being based at least in part on the battery temperature value and the load voltage requirement value; and \n an output configured to activate the power converter when the controller determines that the internal cells of the battery cannot support the load's voltage requirement without intervention.
