Patent number: 9799018Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for an appliance system. The system includes an appliance, and a processor connected to the appliance such that the processor places the appliance in one of an enabled state and a disabled state. The processor is configured to track usage of the appliance and to place the appliance in a disabled state when the usage of the appliance exceeds a threshold amount. The system also includes a data receiving device configured to receive a code, wherein upon receipt of a valid code, the processor is configured to adjust the threshold amount to allow additional usage of the appliance.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2015Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: D.Light Design, Inc.Inventor: Douglas J.

Patent number: 8972069Abstract: A controller for controlling operation of a solar power system is disclosed. The controller receives electrical power from an energy capture device and outputs electrical power to one or more external loads. The controller initiates a first maximum power point tracking algorithm during an epoch. The controller then determines whether the first maximum power point tracking algorithm is satisfactory. If it is, the controller continues using the first maximum power point tracking algorithm. If it is not, the controller switches to second maximum power point tracking algorithm. The first and second maximum power point tracking algorithms may be optimized for different environmental conditions, such as different amounts of sunlight incident on a solar panel.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2014Date of Patent: March 3, 2015Assignee: d.light design, Inc.Inventors: Michael Hudson, Ned Tozun
