Eco-friendly chargers

Solar Power Chargers are an excellent and very simple means of charging up your batteries and have been widely and critically acclaimed thanks to their innovative and eco-friendly design and function. Traditionally, chemical based batteries had, at best, a highly limited life span and a life that ended in the same sad conclusion: the batteries when no longer useful had to be disposed off and new ones purchased.

The major problem with this was the high levels of waste involved, with such limited lifespan, and more and more people needing batteries, a solution had to be reached, and soon. As time went by, new improvements to the technology of batteries steadily improved, and so batteries lasted for longer. The major breakthrough for the batteries was that they soon became fully rechargeable after use, thus prolonging their useful lifespan exponentially.

While a major improvement from the original models of batteries, which n comparison were positively prehistoric in their design, rechargeable batteries were still wasteful. Whilst a major amount of wastage involved had been effectively reduced, a major bone of contention was that the batteries still had to use energy to be actually recharged, and the amount of energy expended in recharging the batteries was grossly disproportionate.

The latest breakthrough then for power chargers has been the greater use and implementation of solar powered components. These solar powered battery charges work in the same way as traditional models. With the crucial difference being that, thanks to the presence of photo sensitive cells within the unit, the power charger converts the energy from the sun into electrical energy to charge the batteries.

There are a number of different types of solar powered battery chargers, some chargers are effective than others due to their size, or because of the type of solar panels actually used. The amount of power actually generated by the various solar panels will be directly affected by the size of the individual panels. It should be noted that the solar battery charger is used to charge up the batteries rather than the actual devices themselves, and this at first glance seems a rather convoluted way of fixing the problem.

Logically, if a device was only powered by means of solar power, then in cases of indoor use, rainy weather etc, the device would be rendered all but useless. The amount of energy required to be converted into electrical energy to then power the electronic device is simply too high, and not a sustainable option.

The alternative to this would be to have the device directly outside in the sunlight, which is as foolish as it is impracticable. Not only would performance of the device be sporadic at best, entirely based on sun visibility, the heat generated by the sun would most likely cause severe damage to the delicate components of the electronic appliance in question. The sun is not the only issue, if it starts to rain, or the weather becomes windy, these conditions will further place the device at risk.
