Mobile phone charger with automatic light

Abstract

A mobile phone charger includes a casing defining an open chamber inside which a circuit board carrying a control circuit is fixed. Conductive blades in electrical connection with the circuit board extend beyond the casing for plugging in a wall outlet. The casing defines a socket for receivingly and releasably mating a plug formed on an inner end of a cable to form electrical connection between the cable and the circuit board. The cable has a remote end forming a connector for connection with a mobile phone to be charged. A plurality of light emitting diodes and a photo-sensitive resistor are mounted on the circuit board whereby when the photo-sensitive resistor detects the surroundings are darkening beyond a threshold, the light emitting diodes are energized by the circuit board to give off light for automatic lighting. A light-transmitting cover is mounted to the casing for covering the open chamber. A lens is formed on the cover for focusing the surrounding light onto the photo-sensitive resistor. An indicator capable of giving off light of two different colors is mounted to the circuit board whereby when the charger is charging a mobile phone, the indicator gives off the first light and when the charging is done, the indicator gives off the second light.
