Fast charging

Bright minds somewhere in Tel Aviv have been thinking about a way to charge our cellphones in no less than 30 seconds. It seems that the new device works on biological semiconductors made from naturally occurring organic compounds called peptides, or short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. The 30-seconds charger is a prototype for the moment but it sure as cellphone science works so we cannot wait to see how our cellphone’s battery life and charging time can be improved. It seems that these fast charger work with an unique type of battery that only boosts the process and we will find out more until 2016, the official release year.

The medieval cellphone charger

After the Nickel Camdium batteries fashion faded and technology took

an evolutionary leap, the Nickel Metal Hydride batteries appeared

but the chargers didn’t change much. The only thing is that the

batteries were non-toxic and didn’t hold that memory effect anymore,

so the giant heavy mobile bricks lasted for longer in terms of battery power. With these kind of chargers, the batteries could be recharged in a shorter timeframe, and let users talk longer before they died. Nokia Cityman 900 took up to 4 hours to

recharge, a considerable step forward in the history of cellphone

chargers.

The USB cable

Charging your cellphone went one step further with this cable that also enables data transfer,

connection, communication and of course, power supply for cellphones. The USB cable

appeared in the late 90’s and it is still a very efficient, pretty fast

and comfortable way to charge your cellphone. The average

charging time with a USB cable is of 3 hours, depending on the

amperage you choose for the cable. The USB cables usually charge your device four times

slower than a classic power charger but they are more

versatile both in terms of size and in terms of connectivity.

Solar chargers

Average weight: 140 gAverage size: 6 cm x 6 cm

Charging time: 4 hoursMaximum Capacity: 10000mAh

The solar chargers are nowadays one of the safest and within reach

alternatives to charge your cellpho-ne. Depending on their potential and

capacities, charging with a solar charger can take up to 4 hours,

average time. General Rule to estimate total hours of direct

sunlights to full charge: (Amperer per Hour of the Battery / Amperes

per Hour of the Charger) + 10%. So, you’ll need an average of 3 hours of

direct sunlight to full charge your cell phone battery using a 2 Watt

solar charger or 30 minutes if You have one of 18 Watt.

Charging kiosk

The charging kiosk is one of the most advanced alternatives for

charging your cellphone nowadays. It looks like a lifeless robot and it

encapsulates a large sum of chargers for various cellphone

models. The charging kiosk is very easy to operate and extremely

secure, as it follows some strong security rules with passwords,

secret keys and password reassu-rances. The charging time when it comes to the charging kiosk is no

more than two hours, being two times faster with the optional Qi

wireless charger.

Charging wearables

It seems that Microsoft has been working with a fashion designer for

that and soon we will have the benefit of some great looking pants that will greatly charge our cellpho-nes also. The “wearable chinos” are

provided with a wireless charger reassembled within the front pocket

of the trousers. Unfortunately, the trousers are not machine washable but are nevertheless a fastforward

leap in fashion design and technolo-gy. So, these cuties come with a

wireless charger embodied in the front pocket, that will properly pump up the power of your device without you needing to worry or think about

the closest charging point.

Car chargers

The car chargers for cellphones come in a wide variety and for a pretty large price range. The car

charger works as this wire that connects your car battery to your

cellphone, allowing electroche-mical energy to be transferred

from your car battery to your cellphone battery. In terms of chargin time, you surely know

that not all chargers are created equally and the charging period

differs from one to another, depending on their mAh capacity.

The car charger can easily be integrated inside the space of

your car, by repurposing the old cigarette lighter receptacles into

mobile device chargers.
