Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A message from the author, Mac Anderson, about Charging the Human Battery: "I love stories that can engage our hearts and our souls! In Charging the Human Battery, I share in 50 Ways to Motivate Yourself. All the chapters are brief stories with high impact. My goal with this little book is to create many "a-ha moments" that can inspire, encourage and motivate you when you need it most!" Self-motivation is a subject that has always fascinated me. It can be the differentiator between being energized by life, rather than controlled by its circumstances. Charging the Human Battery is filled with stories and quotes that are designed to engage your brain and your heart, to think about life in a new way...because one idea, if you're ready for it, can change your life forever. Just remember...people are like sticks of dynamite; the power's on the inside but nothing happens until the fuse gets lit. So take a few moments to light your fuse today...and see how you how high your life can soar. From Eddie Curley of Naperville, Illinois. "There is more wisdom and inspiration in this book than any I've read in a long time. It can change the way you think about life."

Download or read book Battery Management Systems written by H.J. Bergveld and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Battery Management Systems - Design by Modelling describes the design of Battery Management Systems (BMS) with the aid of simulation methods. The basic tasks of BMS are to ensure optimum use of the energy stored in the battery (pack) that powers a portable device and to prevent damage inflicted on the battery (pack). This becomes increasingly important due to the larger power consumption associated with added features to portable devices on the one hand and the demand for longer run times on the other hand. In addition to explaining the general principles of BMS tasks such as charging algorithms and State-of-Charge (SoC) indication methods, the book also covers real-life examples of BMS functionality of practical portable devices such as shavers and cellular phones. Simulations offer the advantage over measurements that less time is needed to gain knowledge of a battery's behaviour in interaction with other parts in a portable device under a wide variety of conditions. This knowledge can be used to improve the design of a BMS, even before a prototype of the portable device has been built. The battery is the central part of a BMS and good simulation models that can be used to improve the BMS design were previously unavailable. Therefore, a large part of the book is devoted to the construction of simulation models for rechargeable batteries. With the aid of several illustrations it is shown that design improvements can indeed be realized with the presented battery models. Examples include an improved charging algorithm that was elaborated in simulations and verified in practice and a new SoC indication system that was developed showing promising results. The contents of Battery Management Systems - Design by Modelling is based on years of research performed at the Philips Research Laboratories. The combination of basic and detailed descriptions of battery behaviour both in chemical and electrical terms makes this book truly multidisciplinary. It can therefore be read both by people with an (electro)chemical and an electrical engineering background.

This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What could possibly go wrong in paradise? Tired of mortgage payments, thirty-something Andrew and Gwynn sold nearly everything they owned but their Siamese cat and escaped their humdrum nine-to-five existence for life in paradise—a tiny island in one of the remotest spots on Earth: the Okavango Delta in Botswana. Woefully inexperienced, they took control of a luxury game lodge that catered to the likes of French aristocrats, Hollywood directors, Mafia lawyers, and the captain of the England cricket team. Not forgetting the hippos who liked to crash cocktail hour. Trouble soon followed as the reality of running a hotel on an island accessible only by boat or plane burst upon them. Andrew and Gwynn learned it's one thing for guests to wake up with gentle giraffes outside their windows, but it's quite another to keep them safe from poisonous snakes, temperamental elephants, and a hyena with a taste for plastic. All that was child's play compared to figuring out how to feed their guests when a 'quick run' to the grocery store required a plane, a bush pilot, and moderate risk to life, limb, and property. By turns funny, touching, and suspenseful, Torn Trousers is a real modern fairytale about getting exactly what you wished for…and then having to live with it.

The materials used to manufacture them are less toxic; making is easier to recycle the batteries. A wide variety of battery chargers is available to recharge them, with one sure to suit every need. Batteries have become a part of modern life. The number of products that rely on batteries for power is simply staggering. Everything from computers to phones to pacemakers has a battery as a power source. Many of these devices use batteries that are suitable for recharging. Recharging batteries makes both environmental and economic sense. By using rechargeable batteries there are fewer batteries going into the landfill. In addition, it makes economic sense to recharge batteries. Though the initial cost of a rechargeable battery is higher than a conventional battery, a rechargeable battery can take hundreds of recharges. Battery chargers for these batteries come in all types and price ranges. Some are quite inexpensive, while others pack a much larger price tag. By the time you finish this basic battery guide, you should know what kind of battery is best for you, as well as the best charger to suit your needs. rechargeable batteries, rechargeable battery charger, battery basics, battery book, battery charging, battery recycling, charging battery
Download or read book Transitions to Alternative Transportation Technologies written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-11-17 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (HFCVs) could alleviate the nation's dependence on oil and reduce U.S. emissions of carbon dioxide, the major greenhouse gas. Industry-and government-sponsored research programs have made very impressive technical progress over the past several years, and several companies are currently introducing pre-commercial vehicles and hydrogen fueling stations in limited markets. However, to achieve wide hydrogen vehicle penetration, further technological advances are required for commercial viability, and vehicle manufacturer and hydrogen supplier activities must be coordinated. In particular, costs must be reduced, new automotive manufacturing technologies commercialized, and adequate supplies of hydrogen produced and made available to motorists. These efforts will require considerable resources, especially federal and private sector funding. This book estimates the resources that will be needed to bring HFCVs to the point of competitive self-sustainability in the marketplace. It also estimates the impact on oil consumption and carbon dioxide emissions as HFCVs become a large fraction of the light-duty vehicle fleet.
