A device for illuminating a portion of a hand-held scanner to indicate a status of the scanner provides an even distribution of light emission. The device might include various elements that facilitate an even distribution of the light. For instance, in one aspect the device includes a set of reflective surfaces that are positioned throughout the scanner together with light-emitting devices (e.g., LED) in a manner to evenly transmit light emissions. In another aspect, the device includes a light-diffusing translucent member, which smoothly and evenly presents the light emissions that are reflected off of the reflective surfaces.

A method for charging batteries, in particular lithium batteries, includes the steps of connecting a battery electrically to a battery-charging apparatus, dispensing electric power to the battery by means of the battery-charging apparatus, and regulating the electric current and voltage dispensed by the battery-charging apparatus to the battery. The regulating step includes the steps of detecting the voltage at the terminals of the battery and regulating the voltage dispensed by the battery-charging apparatus, during a phase of constant-voltage battery charging, depending on the voltage detected at the terminals of the battery, to compensate for parasitic voltage drops existing between the battery () and the battery-charging apparatus.

An electronic ignition and alarm system for motorcycles. An electronic circuit for reading a coded signal emitted by a code-generating integrated circuit inside the ignition key, can be connected inductively or by electric contact means to a microcontroller programmed to enabling the operation of the ignition circuit of the engine after identification of the coded-signal. The coded-signal reader and the microcontroller are fed by a power source comprising a capacitor for storing the energy supplied by the voltage generator of the ignition circuit of the motorcycle. The energy storage capacitor can be connected to the voltage generator via a first low-impedance circuit comprising an electronic trigger switch deactivated by a control circuit which controls the charging voltage of the energy storage capacitor upon start-up of the engine, before activation of the ignition circuit, or, respectively, via a high-impedance circuit which maintains the charging voltage of the capacitor to reduce current drainage of the voltage generator by the capacitor during running of the engine.
