Design and Development of a Super Capacitor Power Bank
Keywords:
Design, Development, Super Capacitor, Power BankAbstract
This Study focused on the design and development of a super capacitor power bank that was developed by the researcher and compared it to the available power bank in the local market. The study employed the experimental method of research in the sense that the developed super capacitor power bank by the researchers evaluated the different parameters being measured and tested. Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that the super capacitor and power bank can charge 30 minutes to 1 hour as compared to the conventional power bank for it took 2 hours to 3 hours to fully charge the battery. Moreover, super capacitor power banks are more effective and efficient as compared to the commercially available conventional power banks in the local market. Furthermore, the super capacitor power bank has a high acceptability level as rated by the evaluators which means that it is comparable to the existing commercially available conventional power banks in the local market. Then, the material components in constructing the super capacitor power bank were readily available from the hardware stores in the locality that can be assembled easily. Moreover, the study showed the total cost of P1,307.00 only, which is cheaper as compared to some of the commercially bought power banks in the local market. Finally, researchers concluded that the super capacitor power bank is more effective, efficient, and convenient as well as environment-friendly as compared to the commercially available power bank in the local market.
