Teen's Invention: Charge Your Cellphone in Just 20 Seconds

A California's teen invention knocked down the cellphone charging time to super fast 20 seconds. The future certainly looks bright for 18-year-old Eesha Khare, who pocketed a $50,000 prize for the Young Scientist award from the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in Phoenix, Ariz., for her tiny and possibly revolutionary device.

Khare sees the device as potentially powering car batteries, cellphones or any electronics that could use a rechargeable battery.

“My cellphone always dies,” Khare explained to NBC San Francisco, when asked what inspired her invention.

The super capacitor, she explains on CBS San Francisco, is “basically an energy source device that can hold a lot of energy in a small amount of volume.”

The Harvard-bound teen has caught the attention of Google, who has approached her about her device.

At the last, her words was "I’m going to be setting the world on fire", which not only shows the spirit & enthusiasm in herself but also tells that she is much more passionate about inventions and believes in serving humanity. And this planet earth needs more people like her who devote their lives in inventions.
