Technological development in the third world nation like Nigeria should incorporate finding solutions to seemly small problems like while trying to plan for the big ones. This statement is necessary given that Nigeria having been able to launch NigeriaSat I and about to launch another code named NigeriaSat 2, would be said to be progressive in their approach to technology acquisition and indeed retrogressive applying same to solving little problems.
The need for a home used charging device is timely, given that daily avoidable accidents occur on our highways due to SLI (starting, lighting and Ignition) faults in motor vehicles.
In Nigeria today there is a wide use of the 12volts Lead Acid Battery. Yet due to the side spread poverty one commuter or vehicle owner chooses to use the same battery over and over again even when the said battery has out lived its usefulness.
A typical Nigerian vehicle (especially the transporters) will refuse to start and would invariably require a push and a shove before it starts, causing the loss of time and thus monologues for employers of labour.
A typical Nigeria Vehicle will not apply it’s light fittings when they are required thus causing road accidents just for the simple reason of a 12volts Lead Acid Battery.
To solve the problems posed by inadequate (starting lighting and Ignition) battery the need for this project which is supposed to enable a car owner charge his battery at home. He/she would see at a glance that the battery is below, normal or above normal voltages. He would also not require any expertise since the flickering display incorporated in the appliance would simply indicate charging or not charging.
