Pulsed mode apparatus with mismatched battery
First Claim
1. A pulse mode apparatus comprising:
- (a) a mismatched battery comprising;
(i) a first battery cell having a first electrolyte with a first internal resistance and first charge capacity and a second battery cell having a second electrolyte with a second internal resistance and second charge capacity, and comprising both of the following;
(1) the second internal resistance is less than the first internal resistance such that a ratio of the first internal resistance to the second internal resistance is at least 3;
2, and (2) the second charge capacity is less than the first charge capacity;
(ii) a pair of electrical connectors electrically coupling the first and second battery cells in parallel;
(iii) a pair of terminals electrically connected to the first or second battery cells; and
(iv) a casing around the first and second battery cells such that the terminals extend out of the casing; and
(b) a pulse mode device electrically connected to the terminals of the mismatched battery, the pulse mode device having a pulse duty cycle with a power-on time period and a power-off time period.

Abstract
A pulse mode apparatus comprises a mismatched battery electrically connected to a pulse mode device having a pulse duty cycle with a power-on time period and a power-off time period. The mismatched battery comprises a first battery cell having a first internal resistance and first charge capacity, and a second battery cell having a second internal resistance and second charge capacity, and the battery comprises at least one of the following: (1) the second internal resistance is less than the first internal resistance, and (2) the second charge capacity is less than the first charge capacity. The battery also has a pair of electrical connectors electrically coupling the first and second battery cells in parallel, a pair of terminals connected to the first or second battery cells, and a casing around the first and second battery cells with the terminals extending out of the casing.
