  • Publication number: 20130099736
    Abstract: A vehicle battery charger includes a pair of battery terminal clamps and a light source disposed on one or both of the terminal clamps. The terminal clamps are coupled to a battery charging base unit via cabling and configured to be secured to terminals of a battery, in order to convey electrical power from a charging power supply disposed in the base unit to the battery. The light source, powered by a separate power supply than the charging power supply, is used to provide illumination of the battery so that the terminal clamps may be correctly attached to the battery terminals.

  • Publication number: 20100039279
    Abstract: A hand tool (10) that provides an alarm signal to a user as the tool approaches a live electrical wire is disclosed. The hand tool (10) comprises a tool head coupled to a handle. A non-contact voltage sensing circuit including an antenna is provided in the handle of the tool (10). As the tool (10) approaches a live electrical wire, the non-contact voltage sensing circuit detects the voltage, triggering an alarm circuit that provides a visual or audio signal to the user.

  • Patent number: 7295130
    Abstract: A hand tool which provides an alarm signal to a user as the tool approaches a live electrical wire is disclosed. The hand tool comprises a tool head and coupled to a handle. A non-contact voltage sensing circuit is provided in the handle of the tool. As the tool approaches a live electrical wire, the non-contact voltage sensing circuit detects the voltage across the air gap between the tool head and the electrical wire, triggering an alarm circuit. The alarm circuit provides a visual or audio signal to the user.
