MOBILE DEVICE SOLAR POWERED CHARGING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND SYSTEM

摘要

Apparatus, methods, and systems are described for a solar powered charger that is configured for charging a mobile device using solar panels or solar technology. The solar powered charger conditions the solar power into a form that is suitable for charging a mobile device. The charger controls the charging, may provide useful user feedback, and may provide for device selection. The charger may also comprise a storage bank and a way to control it, such that, power may be stored up for later use when desired.

主权项

1. An apparatus for charging a mobile device using solar technology, comprising:
a voltage conditioning module configured to receive power, wherein the voltage conditioning module comprises a storage control module and a storage bank; a current detection module configured to detect the voltage conditioning module output current; a control module configured to compare the voltage conditioning module output current to a predetermined threshold, and to allow a mobile device to be charged based on the predetermined threshold; and a user indication module configured to provide user feedback based on an event.
