1.1 Introduction
Electricity is of great importance to our lines and has done a lot of good to our present day society it is something we cannot do without, if we are to advance technological and otherwise.
It has really helped us in the powering of our system both in our domestic homes and industries.
But in our own country (Nigeria), there has been always these problems of lack of power and fluctuation in power supplied, which made me to see how I can design a circuit that can generate a source of light, eve in the absence of electricity or power from the general source of power supply (PHCN)
I decided to design and write on a rechargeable lantern, which I always use a my source of light in the absence of the major source of light. Ti is a portable lamp designed to be recharged using an alternating current (A.C) and to generate a source of light using a direct current (D.C) source.
When the system is charging using an A.C. source, the lamp will never come on which is the source of light. This is because I used light emitting diode (LED) as my source of light and it is a D.C component.
1.2 Objective of the Project
- Rechargeable lamp helps one to understand and how a D.C source can generate a source of light.
- It helps one to understand how to design a portable lamp
- To see how a source of light will be generated in the absence of electricity or power supply
1.3 Significance of the Study
- It helps me mostly in the night to read effectively
- It helps me also to use light even to read absence of power in the house as an emergency.
- The benefits that are derivable from it is more than the maintenance factor, I attribute it such as (no fuel required as compared with A.C generators).
This material contains electrical diagrams, circuits, illustrations and more (Very detailed).
