A method for altering a user interface of a power device, the user interface having an interface structure, the method comprising:
- receiving user preference information;
- determining additional configuration information of the power device;
- adapting the interface structure based at least in part on the user preference information and the additional configuration information;
- and
- providing at least a portion of the adapted interface structure to a user via the user interface.
A power device comprising:
- a housing;
- an input to receive power from a power source;
- an output operatively coupled to the input and configured to provide power;
- a user interface disposed within the housing;
- a data storage disposed within the housing;
- a controller coupled to the user interface and the data storage and configured to:
- receive user preference information;
- determine additional configuration information of the power device;
- adapt the interface structure based at least in part on the user preference information and the additional configuration information;
- and
- provide at least a portion of the adapted interface structure to a user via the user interface.
