Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015066626A1] Methods for extending the life of a battery output regulated voltages from output terminals configured to interface with input terminals of battery powered devices. A method includes receiving a battery electrical power output from the battery. The voltage output by the battery decreases from a battery first output voltage to a battery second output voltage during use of the battery. The electrical power output is used to drive a converter that outputs a converter electrical power having a converter output voltage greater than the battery second output voltage. The converter electrical power is output from output terminals configured to interface with input terminals of a battery powered device. The converter is configured and supported relative to the battery to interface with one or more output terminals of the battery.
