1. A method for monitoring and maintaining battery charge of a personal monitoring device, comprising:
locking the personal monitoring device to a limb of a monitored person, wherein the locking requires that the monitored person remain tethered to a power source for a period of time to charge a battery of the personal monitoring device;
collecting historical information about the personal monitoring device including movement data of the personal monitoring device and battery charging history of the personal monitoring device;
analyzing the collected historical information for historical patterns of battery charging behavior;
receiving a current location of the personal monitoring device;
determining whether to send a battery charge reminder to the monitored person, based on at least a current location of the personal monitoring device, a current battery charge, and the historical patterns of battery charging behavior; and
providing, in response to a positive outcome of the determining, a notification to the monitored person to charge the battery;
wherein the determining is further based on receipt of information indicating that the current location of the personal monitoring device is in an area subject to a current utility power outage.
