The concept: Integrate programmable security into the power tool line to prevent job site theft.
The solution: Create a battery-based charger with a programming keypad to program batteries with a 4-digit pin for the recognized tool.
Integrating programmable security into a power tool line to prevent job site theft can be achieved by developing a battery-based charger equipped with a programming keypad. This system would allow users to set a unique 4-digit PIN that links the battery exclusively to recognized tools. Once programmed, the battery will only power tools registered to its corresponding PIN, preventing unauthorized use or theft of both tools and batteries on job sites. This security feature adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring that even if a battery or tool is stolen, it becomes unusable without the correct PIN. Additionally, this solution enhances the overall functionality and safety of power tools, making them more secure for professional use in various work environments
