Abstract
Some people do not pay attention to the battery life of their devices. Even with a charger on you, it is sometime difficult to locate a power outlet to charge your phone, especially in parks or foreign countries. Furthermore, there is no standard voltage and frequency throughout the world. Plugging into a socket with the wrong voltage or cycle can cause electric shock or even start a fire. Different countries have diverse variety of plug shapes, holes, sizes and sockets. It would be too tedious and expensive to purchase different kinds of plug adapters before taking a trip to another country.We at OMG Studio propose a solar charger that will charge cell phone or other small devices without the need of a power outlet. The screen on the charger will indicate the battery level and the temperature. Using this environmentally beneficial device, the user will save time and money.
