Abstract:
An energy unit for an electrical device, the electrical device having a power source and an operational load, wherein the electrical device also contains a layered electrical device, the layered electrical device having a top exterior surface and a bottom exterior surface, the energy unit comprising:at least one energy storage device comprising:a dielectric material; anda first and a second electrical storage conducting layer, wherein the dielectric material lies between the first and second electrical storage conducting layers;whereby the dielectric material exists between the top exterior surface and bottom exterior surface of the layered electrical device;a voltage detector for detecting a potential level of the power source, wherein the voltage detector detects a power source disruption when the voltage detector detects that the potential level of the power source is below a first voltage state;a switcher controlled by the voltage detector for disconnecting the power source from the operational load and for connecting the energy storage device to the operational load when the voltage detector detects a power source disruption, whereby the energy storage device provides electrical power to the operational load during the power source disruption.
