A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11772493B2) describes a system for managing portable electrical energy storage devices. The system includes a controller that receives information about a first vehicle and enables a first portable energy storage device to release a certain amount of energy based on the information. Similarly, the controller receives information about a second vehicle and configures a second portable energy storage device to release a greater amount of energy based on the information.

The second amount of energy released by the second portable energy storage device is greater than the first amount of energy released by the first portable energy storage device. This suggests that the system is designed to provide different levels of energy output based on the performance profiles of the vehicles. The performance profiles indicate the performance levels of the vehicles, with the second vehicle having a higher performance level than the first vehicle.

The patent also mentions that the information regarding the vehicles includes payment amounts associated with the portable energy storage devices. The first payment amount for the first portable energy storage device is lower than the second payment amount for the second portable energy storage device. This implies that the system may offer different pricing options based on the user profiles associated with the vehicles.

Additionally, the patent describes a method for managing the portable energy storage devices that involves receiving information about the authentication of a charger device. The first amount of energy released by the first portable energy storage device is determined at least partially based on this authentication information.

In summary, the granted patent outlines a system and method for managing portable electrical energy storage devices. The system allows for different amounts of energy release based on the performance profiles of the vehicles, with the second vehicle receiving a greater amount of energy. The payment amounts associated with the portable energy storage devices vary, with the first payment amount being lower than the second payment amount. The authentication of the charger device is also taken into account when determining the energy release.
