Design And Construction Rechargeable Lamp Using LED With Charging Monitoring And Controlling System

1.1 INTRODUCTION
An LED lantern is a portable lighting device or mounted light fixture used to illuminate broad areas. Lanterns may also be used for signaling, as torches, or as general light sources outdoors. Low light level varieties are used for decoration. The term “lantern” is also used more generically to mean a light source, or the enclosure for a light source.
Rechargeable lights are very useful electrical gadgets and are quite popular, too. During a power failure these portable lights are able to instantly illuminate through battery backup and never allow us to stumble in the darkness. Although you will find a variety of them in different shapes and sizes in the market, but building your own emergency light at home can be a totally different experience. It will not only help you to create a quality design but also will acquaint you to the technical aspects of the unit. Besides, you also get an opportunity to customize the circuit as per your own needs.

1.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
The objective of this work is to design an LED lighting device that can be powered with AC 220V 50Hz and Rechargeable battery 6V 4.5Ah for the purpose of lighting the environment which also have the ability to monitor and control the charging system.

1.3 PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT
The purpose of this work is to design lantern with charging monitoring and controlling system that provides the highest power flexibility backup for ones outdoor, emergencies and power outage. So that you have the maximum operating time and high flexibility of batteries

1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
This system charges when there is power supply, the energy is stored in a rechargeable battery which is to be used when there is power outage and it can also be used as a lantern when there is mains power supply. The lasting of the stored energy depends on the capacity of the rechargeable battery. This device can also used as charging monitoring and controlling device.

1.5 LIMITATION OF THE PROJECT
• The device is powered directly to ac mains (220V 50Hz) and rechargeable battery (6V 4.5Ah).
• It can easily get burnt when high voltage is experienced in the mains if it is not properly regulated.
• It is portable outdoor lantern dual power supply design white LED.

1.6 APPLICATION OF THE PROJECT
Rechargeable lantern is used in many places such as:
• In school library, hall and labs
• Churches
• Workshop
• Homes, etc
All for the purpose of illuminating of such environment and to make sure that the system will not lacks power supply. They highly choose because of its simplicity and safety, that is, it can be charged, hanged, and continues with your adventures into the night.

1.7 ADVANTAGES OF RECHARGEABLE LANTERN
1. Lightweight. Compared to a gas lantern, a rechargeable lantern is light as a feather. Gas lanterns are typically made of glass and have metal canisters that add weight that rechargeable lanterns are able to eliminate. The lighter the weight of the lantern the more versatile it can be, whether it be to light up the card table or take it for your bathroom break.
2. User-friendly. With the variety of lanterns like liquid fuel, gas, or even candle, a rechargeable lantern is an alternative that offers ease of use. All you have to do it switch it on and light is available. This saves you from having to remember to bring other items on the trip like gas to fuel the lantern or matches to light the candle. If you happen to have kids joining you on a camping trip, spoiler alert: they will more than likely drop a gas lantern and break the glass. Skip to the good part and allow them to carry a rechargeable lantern without worry.
3. Safe. Lanterns with flames always come with a small risk of causing a fire, but rechargeable lanterns don’t require a babysitter. By avoiding a kerosene powered lantern, you can eliminate potential fumes.
4. Convenient. The right rechargeable camping lantern offers a number of ways to keep it up and running. These can be charged via AC plug

1.8 BENEFITS OF THE PROJECT
The rechargeable Lithium Ion battery is one of the most long lasting batteries and provides both reliable and durable power. Lithium Ion batteries are more efficient and last longer than standard batteries.
• faster charging time
• You do not have to completely deplete the battery before recharging again
• Approximately 50% longer runtimes at the same level of brightness
• More power, less bulk
• This device can also be used as battery status monitoring device

1.9 PROJECT WORK ORGANISATION
The various stages involved in the development of this project have been properly put into five chapters to enhance comprehensive and concise reading. In this project thesis, the project is organized sequentially as follows:
Chapter one of this work is on the introduction to rechargeable LED lantern with charging monitoring and controlling system. In this chapter, the background, significance, objective limitation and problem of a rechargeable LED lantern with charging monitoring and controlling system were discussed.
Chapter two is on literature review of rechargeable LED lantern with charging monitoring and controlling system. In this chapter, all the literature pertaining to this work was reviewed.
Chapter three is on design methodology. In this chapter all the method involved during the design and construction were discussed.
Chapter four is on testing analysis. All testing that result accurate functionality was analyzed.
Chapter five is on conclusion, recommendation and references.
