Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing additional charging power by means of natural and man made surrounding light sources to a communication device comprises a generally square frame member defining a front and second side, the first side of the frame member having embedded a plurality of photo-voltaic cells and the second side housing an adhesive for attachment to the second side of the communication device. The photo-voltaic cells are interconnected to each other and attached to an electrically thin ribbon wire which protrudes through the second side of the frame member. At the end of the ribbon wire is an applicator for attaching the ribbon wire into a battery plug socket located within the communication device's battery compartment. The first side of the frame member also houses a light emitting diode (LED) electrically connected between the plurality of photo-voltaic cells and the ribbon wire to indicate if auxiliary photoelectric charge is being provided to the communication devices battery.
