RECHARGEABLE BATTERY PACK
First Claim
1. A rechargeable battery pack for use with an electronic device having wireless charging features, the rechargeable battery pack comprising:
- a housing having at least a first surface and a second surface;
one or more rechargeable batteries;
a first inductive coil proximate the first surface of the housing, the first inductive coil configured for wirelessly receiving electrical power from an external power source;
electrical circuitry for storing the received electrical power in the one or more rechargeable batteries; and
a second inductive coil proximate the second surface of the housing, the second inductive coil configured for wirelessly transmitting at least a portion of the received electrical power stored in the one or more rechargeable batteries to the electronic device.

Abstract
A rechargeable battery pack includes a housing, a rechargeable battery, a first inductive coil, a second inductive coil, and electrical circuitry. The first inductive coil is proximate a first surface of the housing and configured for wirelessly receiving electrical power from an external power source. The electrical circuitry stores the received electrical power in the rechargeable battery. The second inductive coil is proximate a second surface of the housing. The second inductive coil is configured for wirelessly transmitting at least a portion of the received electrical power stored in the rechargeable battery to the electronic device.
