Abstract: A charging adapter includes a hitch adapter assembly including a tube that is received in a trailer hitch of a vehicle, a mounting plate coupled to the tube, and an electric vehicle socket coupled to the mounting plate. The electric vehicle socket receives power from an electric vehicle charging station. The hitch adapter assembly is coupled to a mobile or fixed power storage device in the vehicle via a wire or power cord. The power cord conveys power from the electrical vehicle charging station to the power storage device. The power storage device stores the power for use at a selected location and time.

Abstract: A method and a device are disclosed including a parallax Graphical User Interface (GUI) software component configured to allow automatic, parallax-type, smooth movement of multiple information panels out of user's view when focus is placed on one of the multiple information panels and the focus information panel is scrolled. When the user scrolls in the opposite direction, the non-focus panels reappear smoothly and automatically and the original user view before scrolling is restored. In various embodiments, search results may be categorized and organized into separate windows, each independently scrollable, which may be viewed using the parallax GUI. In various embodiments, a number of documents and/or software applications used to open such documents, may be registered in a parallax list to allow navigation using the parallax GUI.
