Abstract

Generally, within a particular platform, power tools and other electronic devices and the associated battery packs are configured to operate at a particular voltage level (e.g., 12V, 18V or 28V). In some cases, it may be desirable to operate a tool at a higher voltage than available from a particular battery pack (e.g., 36V instead of 18V). The invention provides a dual-mode battery pack comprising: a housing; a first set of battery cells connected in series and positioned in the housing; a second set of battery cells connected in series and positioned in the housing; series connection contacts configured to connect the first set of battery cells and the second set of battery cells in series when closed; and parallel connection contacts configured to connect the first set of battery cells and the second set of battery cells in parallel, wherein one of the series connection contacts and the parallel connection contacts are closed when directly engaged by one or more conductive blades of an external electronic device, wherein the other of the series connection contacts and the parallel connection contacts are opened when directly engaged by one or more insulating ribs of the external electronic device, and corresponding method.
