Abstract
The world is currently facing major problems; one of the problems is energy crisis. Since
the first energy source, natural gas was discovered, more sources of energy was suddenly
discovered and widely used in the society, but the problem for a more suitable and more
effective energy source is still a major problem. Because the current energy source of the world
is gasoline, fossil fuel, etc. are greatly contributed in the pollution of our surroundings. And
power plants and other energy source is vastly found on urban areas such as cities, etc. but in
remote areas such as countryside, islands and provinces are lacking energy source because the
government does not give much of their attention to the places with discrete number of people.
This study show the benefits that the society can have if renewable energy, such as solar
energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, hydroelectric energy and many more renewable energy
will be used as the main source of energy. This study will focus in using solar energy as
alternative source of energy especially here in the Philippines, which has a tropical climate, by
constructing a self-sustaining power bank with built in taser or “PoLar Bank”. And having a
conceptual analysis between the PoLar Bank and a standard power bank by conducting multiple
tests to differentiate the two subjects and reach a suitable answer for the stated problems by the
researchers

CHAPTER 1
The Problem and Its Background
Introduction
All our lauded technological progress, our very civilization –– is like the axe in the hand
of the pathological criminal. – Albert Einstein
It has become terribly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity. The
technological advancement has been increasing every minute, every hour and every day. Our
society is so eager to create and develop an innovative product, gadgets, and machine just to
make their lives easier to lengthen their lives.
Over the past period there are debut of many types of devices including smartphones and
tablets. Today’s people have already witnessed the evolution of smart phones. People are now
living in a millennium period where everyone is so excited to have the latest mobile phone. Most
of them are updated and eager to get the latest cellphone that trend in the market.
Indeed, cellphone is really a necessity nowadays, people couldn’t leave their homes
without cellphone in their pocket maybe because of its multi-function features where everyone
can use for communication, social media, taking pictures, listening to music and playing videos.
Based on Statistics (2018), Technology & Telecommunication statistic shows the number of
smart phones user in the Philippines from 2015 to 2018 is 34.44 million users.
Rapid economic development, increased consumer purchasing power bank, commonly
known as a battery charger, is a portable charger used to charge a wide range of digital products.
It is used as an external battery, plug-in charger or back-up charger for charging a rechargeable
battery or secondary cell.

Page |9
Advancement of technology and use of portable devices has driven the growth and
demand for supply of power bank. According to Costello, Hector (2018), “Global Portable
Power Bank Market 2018 Forecast 2025” report is a valuable source of guidance and direction
for companies and individuals who are looking for investment or opportunities in growing
Portable Power Bank Industry. However, the world’s resources are diminishing, government and
non-government organizations are pushing a greener solution through the use of renewable
energy sources. It was forecasted by some scientists such as Thomas Alva Edison that Solar
Energy will be the future energy source. The portable solar phone charger is one of the devices
that use light to charge a phone. It is portable that people on the road or on camping can carry it
into their pocket and charge their phones where ever they want. However, people who are using
phone in public places is no longer safe and it is more efficient if there is a solar power bank
device where you can use it as charger at the same time you can use it as self-defense mechanism
against cellphone theft.
The researchers come up with study to provide a self sustaining power bank for those
who live in rural areas and remote islands that doesn’t have stable energy source. This study can
be useful especially here in Philippines that have a tropical climate.
Review of Related Literature
Renewable energy
According to Vermar et al. (2014), the use of renewable energy such as; solar power,
biomass, hydro power, wind energy, geothermal energy, have a huge impact as a source of
energy on power plant.
9
P a g e | 10
Based on the study of the researcher Brahim (2014), it will be beneficial to the
Philippines to use renewable energy as the main source of energy, because the Philippine’s
current main source of energy is oil. Even though there are places in the Philippines that use
renewable energy, they are still dominated by the oil energy.
Based on the study of Mureddu et al. (2015), the inflating number issues in our
environment triggered the implementations of renewable energy based models. Renewable
energy getting more demand that cause balancing in terms of using non-renewable energy. And
this is changing the energy management and making problems that can at least be understood.
Based on the study of Owusu and Sardokie (2016), the inflating demand on energy all
around the world, they need to find more source of energy. But it contributes to pollution
because the world’s main source of energy is non-renewable energy. So, using renewable energy
can help to reduce the contribution in global warming and provide a new and clean energy for
the future generations.
According to McCulley (2015), using renewable energy in remote areas is helpful in
harvesting solar energy and storing it in a portable Mobile Elemental Power Plant II. It can
supply 3000W of AC power and it’s towable. Because it can be disassembled, it can be used in
medical sites, humanitarian projects, disaster relief locations and military application.
Solar Energy
According to Sharma et al. (2015) and Fayeez et al. (2015), more power stations can be
built with proper allocation of time, money, effort and enough study about solar power energy.
And it means the community will start to use and rely to solar technologies instead of using oil as
the source of energy. Using solar energy is so effective in terms of energy production in remote
10
P a g e | 11
areas where other source of energy is not that effective. And solar energy is the eco-friendliest
power source. But it’s also like the diesel generators because of the very high initial cost.
Based on the study of Cabrillos et al. (2018), there are 6.8 billion cellphone users around
the world and it keeps increasing because of the high demand in the market. So, as the number of
cellphone users increases, the demand in electricity is also increasing. And this study suggests
that using renewable energy, especially solar energy, can help us in our energy problems.
According to Gohil et al. (2017) and Uwibambe et al. (2017), the power necessities of the
world including India are hoisted at aggravating rate and the control request has been expanding.
The non-renewable energy sources (i.e., coal, oil and flammable gas) and other customary assets,
by and by utilized for age of electrical vitality. It isn't adequate or reasonable to keep Age with
consistently expanding interest of the electrical vitality of the world. The age of electrical power
by chilly based steam control plant and atomic power plants causes contamination, which is
probably going to be more hurtful in future because of extensive creating limit on one side and it
became extreme because more prominent attention to the individuals in this regard. This venture
give thought regarding non-traditional Energy sources and why we are going for that non-regular
vitality sources. The best possible employments of sun based vitality and its distinctive
application which are utilizing at home protection part, marines, remote territory and so forth.
Even though that there are many technological advancements, there are still countries that
struggle in the scarcity of energy resources like India, that only depend in hydro power because
fuel and thermal energy is still on small scales and to sustain the energy demand, using
renewable energy especially the use of solar panel can be an alternative source of energy
especially in rural areas.
11
P a g e | 12
Solar power bank
According to Ties and Soh (2014), building a mini low cost solar power bank that has a
rechargeable battery and a charge controller to monitor will be beneficial to the society.
Based on the study of Agarwal (2016), IJIR (2017) and IJECT (2014), building a power
bank that use solar energy as the main source of energy can be a handy thing when travelling.
Also power bank is important especially for those who travel a lot and doesn't have any access to
electricity or for those who work and are using cell phones, they need to extend the usage time of
their cell phones for their day to be productive, and making a power bank that can be charged
using solar power will be more efficient than an original power bank because you can also
charge your power bank even without any access to electricity. The solar energy has a huge
potential as an alternative source of energy. So building a power bank that can absorb energy
from sunlight by using photovoltaic cells that has a USB port that is compatible to charge any
mobile device.
Based on the study of Bekhe and Harun (2016), Malaysia electricity generation and
consumption are important issues. Currently 97.6% of Malaysian people have access to
electricity in many sectors such as housing, transportation, manufacturing, construction and etc.
Malaysia showed continuing increase in electricity consumption by 8.7% from 1980 to 2014.
Electricity generation shows similar growth at 8.4%. Realizing that the electrical consumption is
increasing. Currently, the issues about energy are not only a local thread even in other countries
like Malaysia where their government project was reviewing the energy policy to ensure long-
term reliability and security of energy resources. To fulfill the electricity demand and to resolve
the projected energy poverty not only locally but even in foreign countries that are trying to
design an energy source derived from natural resources which will not deplete when used.

Energy usage
According to Dubey (2016) and Abolhosseini et al. (2014), regardless the possibilities,
there are provocations that prevent the sustainability of renewable energy with regards to climate
change alleviation. Suggestions which when contemplated would help reach the aim of
renewable energy consequently to lessen excretions, alleviate climate change and give a good
environment as well as good energy for all and for succeeding generations. Energy is needed in
our day by day living as a process of enhancing human growth guiding to financial growth and
efficiency.
Based on the studies of Najideen and Larwashden (2017) and Brahim (2014), there are
ways to conserve the energy available. The use of renewable energy especially here in the
Philippines will be advisable particularly the use of solar energy because it’s so abundant in
places or countries with warm climate. But it needs to be thoroughly examined to determine the
advantages and difficulties in using solar power as the source energy.
Based on the research paper of Joshi (2015), using utilized part of a circuit that enhances
the abilities of portable power banks that you can buy in the market are talked about. Parts like
DC voltage controllers and USB links are utilized to make a circuit with greater utility compared
to products in the market. It offers extra favorable circumstances and more straightforward way
to deal with these convenient power banks. This outline will help in reducing generally cost of
the gadget and furthermore help individuals by unwinding the need of telephone chargers and
separate chargers for USB gadgets. It will be useful throughout the days, as, the speed and
progressions in telephones are at an exponential rate which diminishes the charge of telephones
enormously. Consequently, this calls for less demanding answers for telephone charging. This
13
P a g e | 14
will likewise demonstrate supportive to the recently developing wear-capable electronic
contraptions as, the size and power rating is perfect for that utilization too.
Taser
Based on the study of Monti et al. (2015) and Hamilton (2017), Combining the protective
case of a cellphone with a personal self-defense, such as taser, will provide not just a mean for
communication, but also for self-defense purposes.
According to Chang (2016), a multipurpose taser or stun gun must include launchers that
will let the taser to function without direct contact to an individual.

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that “Energy cannot be created nor destroyed
but can only be transferred from one form to another”. This is where the idea of solar energy
came from, to transfer the sun’s raging light into lifelong, safe and sustainable energy source for
the human beings. The process on how sunlight is converted into electrical energy is basically
because the sunlight is absorbed by Photovoltaic (PV) cell made of semiconductor material like
silicon or commonly known as solar cells, and directly converts into electricity.
When the light strikes the semiconductor material, a certain amount is absorbed which
means energy from the source is transferred into the material and magnetic field causes electrons
to flow in a certain direction that now produces the current. The power generated by the PV cells
flow through a circuit design to charge the battery.
Potential of Solar Energy
Solar energy can become the main source of energy for all. In fact, other countries like
China are promoting solar panel as a medium in converting solar energy into electricity. Solar
energy is the future source of our energy source and continuous improvement and study are
expected to happen for fine tuning of this discovery. The market share of solar energy is still
low. Current electricity generation from PVs is only of the order of 2.6 GW compared to 36.3 W
for all renewable energies, hydroelectric power excluded. Developed countries are steadily
increasing their investments in solar power plants, and IEA projections for 2030 give an
enhancement of solar electricity generation up to 13.6 GW (80% of which will be from
photovoltaic cells, and the rest (2.4GW) from solar thermal plants. However, this amount will
not exceed 6% of the total electricity production from non-hydro renewable energies. It is worth
noting that passive
15
P a g e | 16
solar technologies for water heating, not included in these statistics, represent a fairly large
amount of power. IEA estimates a power production of 5.3GW in 2002 and an increase up to
46GW by 2030.

Statement of the Problem
Mobile phones are currently the most popular form of wireless communication almost all
the countries throughout the world. However, the average lifetime of a cell phone battery is only
around 8-12 hours with moderate usage. This becomes very inconvenient for people especially
on the road or occupied with work.
This study aims to know the efficiency of solar-powered phone charger with built-in taser
as an emergency source of energy and self-defense weapon compare to a commercial power
bank and taser.
Specifically, the study will answer the following sub-problems.
1. How long does it take for the PoLar Bank to be fully charged using its solar panel?
2. What are the differences between PoLar Bank and commercial power bank in terms of:
2.1 Charging time of:
2.1.1 PoLar Bank
2.1.2 Mobile phones
3. How much voltage can be released by the taser of the PoLar Bank?
Assumption
1. The researchers assumed that the PoLar bank’s charging time using the solar panel
will depend on the temperature. The higher the temperature the faster the PoLar Bank
17
P a g e | 18
will be fully charged. And if the temperature is 35◦C, the Polar Bank can be fully
charged within 9 hours and 45 mins
2. 2.1
2.1.1 The researchers assumed that the charging time of the two power banks will
vary on the quality of the charger module and the lithium ion battery. For the
PoLar Bank, it will be fully charged within 4 hours and 50 mins and for a
standard power bank, it will be fully charged within 4 hours and 40 mins
.2.1.2 the researchers assumed that the charging time of cell phones using the
power banks will vary on the quality of the charger module. For the PoLar bank,
it can fully charge an average smart phone within 4 hours and 30 mins and while
using a standard power bank, it will take up to 4 hours and 20 mins to fully
charged an average smart phone
3. The researchers assumed that the taser can produce 200 volts. The amount of voltage
emitted will largely depend on the voltage generator used.
Scope and Delimitation
This study focused on constructing a power bank that used sunlight as an alternative
source of energy and a feature that can be used as a non-lethal self-defense mechanism.
The main parts of this prototype are; battery, charger module high voltage generator and
solar panel. The solar panel that was used must match the voltage of the battery for it to work
properly.
The prototype will be compared to a standard power bank. To be able to compare the
two, the researchers must know the characteristics of the two power bank, after that, the
researchers performed experiments to determine the difference between the two power banks.
18
P a g e | 19
This study was not able to use other alternative energy source, aside from the solar
energy. And this prototype will be at a disadvantage when there is no sunlight.
Significance of the Study
People already realized how much harm they have caused to the environment when it
comes to take a stand against these environmental problems. This study focuses in discovering
an alternative energy sources in order to sustain the needs of human.
This study aims to prove that using solar power as an alternative source of energy by
using power banks can benefits us because we are living in a society with advance technologies.
Gadgets is essential in our daily lives and can lessen then crime rate because it has a built in
electroshock weapon with the help of electricians and electrical engineers. This study will benefit
the following:
For the students, this study can contribute information’s and ideas in community and
being to the current problem and can motivate them to conserve more energy.
For the government, the findings of this study can motivate the government officials to
use more renewable energy as an alternative source to avoid and lessen the pollutants emitted in
our environment. And focus not just in the cities but to the inhabited island far away. And it will
aware them the situation of the country in terms of the safety of the citizens.
For the society, this study can motivate people to be wiser is using energy because our
country’s population is increasing, so the energy demand is also increasing. And some Non-
government Organizations can organize programs that involve energy conserving and using
renewable energy as an alternative source. And it can be a way to ensure their safety.

The researchers first make the battery of the power bank. 5 lithium ion batteries are used
for storing electricity. An electrical tape is needed to bind the batteries together and solder its end
with copper wires for the electricity to flow in each battery.
And then, the charger module was connected in the battery. The charger module is used
to monitor and display the battery percentage. It was connected by copper wires.
After that, the researchers start to make the taser. The materials needed are: high voltage
generator, button, copper wires and a thin metal rod. And then all the parts are assembled. First,
the high voltage generator has 2 pairs of wires in both ends. The first pair is the positive and the
negative wire and the other end are two wires that only emit electricity. The researchers connect
the high voltage generator to the battery and between them is the button for activating the taser.
And on the other end, the thin metal rod was connected to act as the fangs of the taser.
After that, the researchers connect an USB cord to the back of the solar panel for it to be
able to charge the power bank. And plug it to the charger module.
And then, the researchers arrange the parts of the power bank, put to its rightful places to
make case from plywood. The parts are glued to the plywood surface and then enclose it with
plywood.
And lastly, a trial and error test was conducted to ensure that the prototype is working.

Summary of Findings, Conclusions and Recommendations
Summary of Findings
According to the findings obtained, the researchers proved that the Solar Power Bank
with built in Taser can really be a source of energy when there is no access to electricity. Even if
the power bank itself is empty, by using the solar panel it can be charged. And if an individual is
in dangerous situation, like robbery, the taser is effective because it can stun a person without
inflicting serious damages. A device that not just stores energy for emergency use, but it’s also a
self – supplying power bank because of the solar panel that use solar energy as the source of
electricity. And the researchers have answered the problems stated:
1. How long does it take for the PoLar Bank to be fully charged using its solar panel?
The PoLar Bank was fully charged using the solar panel in average time of 10
hours and 22 minutes.
2. What are the differences between PoLar Bank and commercial power bank in terms of:
2.1 Charging time:
2.1.1 PoLar Bank
The charging time of PoLar Bank has an average time of 5 hours
45 mins while the commercial power bank’s charging time has an average
of 5 hours and 55 minutes. Therefore, the Polar Bank has faster time to be
27
P a g e | 28
fully charged than a commercial power bank. They have a difference of 10
minutes.
2.1.2 Mobile phones
Based on the data that were obtained, it shows that PoLar Bank is
faster than a commercial power bank when it comes in charging mobile
devices. The first subject, Vivo V5s, it has an average time of 4 hours and
38 minutes using the PoLar Bank while using a commercial power bank, it
has an average time of 4 hours and 44 minutes. And they have a difference
of 6 minutes. While the second subject, Samsung Galaxy S5, it has an
average time of 4 hours using the PoLar Bank while using a commercial
power bank, it has an average time of 4 hours and 8 minutes. And they
have a difference of 8 minutes. Therefore, the PoLar Bank has faster
charing time than a commercial power bank.
3. How much voltage can be released by the taser of the PoLar Bank?
The taser of the PoLar Bank can emit 250 volts of electricity. The amount
of voltage released by the taser greatly affected by the high voltage
generator used. A multi-tester was used to measure the volts being
released by the taser.

P a g e | 29
Conclusion
Based on the experimental study that has been conducted, the researchers have come up
with the following conclusions:
1.) The PoLar Bank can charge itself without the use of electricity or wall plugs
2.) The PoLar Bank is very useful especially in rural and remote areas because even though
their area lacks the source of energy, they can use the abundant sunlight in their
surroundings as the new source of energy using the PoLar Bank
3.) The PoLar Bank can be used as a self-defense device that doesn’t inflict any serious
injury to a person
4.) The size of PoLar Bank is bulky but compact on the inside and still can be handheld
5.) The solar panel feature of the PoLar Bank will be at a disadvantage in rainy seasons
because of the lack of sunlight in this particular part of the years
6.) The PoLar Bank’s charging module has a huge contribution why it has a better charging
capability from a commercial power bank. Because the charging module is the one that
regulate and monitor the electricity that goes in and out of the power bank. The higher the
quality of the charger module, the better the performance it can contribute to the whole
PoLar Bank itself.
7.) The solar panel can have a faster charging capability when the temperature is high. The
higher the temperature, more energy it can produce.
Recommendations
This product is highly recommended especially for those who live in rural and remote
areas, places that struggle with energy shortage. This product can get energy from sunlight and
29
P a g e | 30
can be used as a non-lethal self-defense device. It’s handy advisable for those who always go on
a trip. And it’s cheaper compare to a standard 10000mAh power bank.
Students. Because gadgets are essential part of a student’s education nowadays, they can
use the PoLar Bank to extend the battery life of their gadgets to its fullest, even they ran out of
battery, whenever wherever they are, they can charge it.
Government. The idea of this power bank using solar panel or any renewable energy,
can be a way to solve the energy crisis because the main energy sources of many countries are
stressing the environment and contributing to pollution. And allocating some funds of the
government to build eco-friendly power plant, will bring many benefits because Philippines will
no longer buy or rely on other countries and getting energy from non-renewable energy sources
just to sustain the energy demand of the Philippines
Society. It will be beneficial especially for the communities in remote places or islands
that have no stable energy source. As long as there’s sunlight, they can charge their gadgets.
Future Researchers. Support the use of renewable energy to the future technologies and
machines. And by having a deep study regarding to this matter, future researchers can improve
this study and prototype. Always set your mind to what you really want to do. Improve this study
and the prototype to help the society lessen the energy crisis by using renewable energy as a new
source of energy.
