Abstract:
A network of collection, charging and distribution machines collect, charge and distribute portable electrical energy storage devices (e.g., batteries, supercapacitors or ultracapacitors). To avoid theft and tampering of the portable electrical energy storage devices, by default, each portable electrical energy storage device is locked in and operably connected to the vehicle to which it provides power unless the vehicle comes within the vicinity of a collection, charging and distribution machine or other authorized external device such as that in a service center. Once within the vicinity of a collection, charging and distribution machine or other authorized external device a locking mechanism in the vehicle or within the portable electrical energy storage device unlocks and allows the portable electrical energy storage device to be exchanged or serviced.

Claim (Index 11):
A method of operating a portable electrical energy storage device security system, the method comprising:\n receiving, by the portable electrical energy storage device security system, information regarding authentication of an external device; and making a determination, by the portable electrical energy storage device security system, regarding unlocking a portable electrical energy storage device locking mechanism to allow a portable electrical energy storage device to be removed from being operably connected to a vehicle, based on the information regarding authentication, wherein the portable electrical energy storage device security system is a operably coupled to a cell of the a portable electrical energy storage device and comprises:\n at least one controller; and \n at least one communications device coupled to the at least one controller, wherein the at least one controller is configured to:\n receive the information regarding authentication of the external device via the communications device; and \n make the determination regarding unlocking the portable electrical energy storage device locking mechanism to allow the portable electrical energy storage device to be removed from being operably connected to the vehicle, based on the information regarding authentication.
