  • Patent number: 10393415
    Abstract: A solar energy-storage cooler includes an insulated housing and a lid movable between a closed position, sealing the opening, and an open position for access to an interior of the housing. A solar power source generates electrical energy for an energy storage component in the housing which is part of an energy storage device. The housing can include a separate secure compartment. A compartment door can close the secure compartment door for locking by a lock mechanism to limit unauthorized access to the secure compartment. The lid and compartment door can share a common hinge. A motion sensor can characterize motion of the housing. An estimate of time can be determined as predictive of a state of charge of the energy storage device. Temperature indications are provided responsive to a temperature sensor.
