ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a newly developed smart apparatus for saving a battery life of electronic devices by controlling their charging process and therefore preventing possible degradation. The apparatus or gadget is mainly made of a microcontroller, relay, socket and current transformer. The main purpose of the smart charging apparatus is to cut off the current flowing towards the battery for some time after the charging process is completed. Unlike smart phones that control their own charging process, the proposed device totally isolates the electronic device from the charging electrical circuit and does not recharge the batteries until the user reconnects the apparatus to electricity. In other words, the newly worked out gadget serves as a smart socket with an extension cable. The proposed apparatus can also be used to control working regimes of electrical appliances and accumulators being charged from solar cells.
