==COLD WEATHER SMART BATTERY HEATING AND CHARGING STRATEGY UTILIZING MULTI-STAGE BATTERY HEATING CONTROL - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18076947 titled 'COLD WEATHER SMART BATTERY HEATING AND CHARGING STRATEGY UTILIZING MULTI-STAGE BATTERY HEATING CONTROL

The patent application describes systems and methods for preheating a battery heater of an electric vehicle (EV) based on the ambient temperature of the battery.

* The method involves determining the estimated vehicle start time and checking if the ambient temperature of the battery is below -5°C.
* If the temperature is below -5°C, a level 1 heating function is performed.
* If the temperature is between -5°C and 5°C, a level 2 heating function is activated.
* For temperatures above -5°C and not between -5°C and 5°C, a level 3 heating function is executed.
