Battery with a voltage regulation device
First Claim
1. A battery comprising:
- an external surface of the battery which is substantially defined by;
a housing;
a positive terminal; and
a negative terminal;
wherein the housing contains;
a power source; and
a voltage regulation device that is operatively connected to the positive terminal, the negative terminal and the power source,wherein the battery has an output voltage and an output current between the positive terminal and the negative terminal in use, andfurther wherein the voltage regulation device includes;
electronic components that are operatively connected to each other to regulate the output voltage to a programmed variable level;
a current sensing circuit that is adapted to sense the output current or a current of the power source of the battery; and
a controller that is operatively connected to one or more of the electronic components of the voltage regulation device, wherein the controller is configured to control the programmed variable level of the output voltage dependent on the current sensed by the current sensing circuit.
