Abstract
An information handling system (IHS) includes a system board including a processor, a first battery for supplying power to the system board, a second battery for supplying power to the system board, and a switching circuit. The switching circuit is configured to repeatedly switch between the first battery and the second battery for supplying power to the system board to provide more power to the IHS than is possible if only one battery were continuously providing power to the IHS.
