Abstract

A wireless personal electronic charging system includes a personal storage item with a storage location for a portable electronic device, a power section, a connector, and a power controller. The power section includes a wireless induction charger receiver and a system battery configured to receive and store power from the wireless induction charger receiver. The connector extends through a lower wall of the storage location and, when a portable electronic device including a device battery is located within the storage location, is in electrical communication with the device battery and transfers power from the power section to the device battery. The power controller directs power from the wireless induction charger receiver to one of the device battery and the system battery. The power controller directs power to the device battery when the device battery is not fully charged and to the system battery when the device battery is fully charged.
