Citizen Eco-Drive Watches
What is Eco-Drive?
Eco-Drive movement system used in Citizen Watches is the most technically advanced power generating and energy storage technique in whole Watch Manufacturing Industry. A solar panel and rechargeable cell creates the power suppy of these remarkable quartz watches. Eco-Drive’s ability to use photons of light from any source to generate electricity means that the supply is unlimited and free,in’t it fantastic?
How Eco-Drive Works?
The two main power components that are monitoring system are - an Eco Drive energy cell and a solar panel convertor. Located beneath the watch dial, the micron thin solar panel is a polymer disc made of amorphous silicon - a nano technological advanced system of silicone molecules. Eco Drive system captures the energy from the source of light that goes inside through the dial and crystal panel . System converts solar energy into electricity through a process called photovoltaics. Electrical energy is stored in the cell energy giving the power required to provide the clock to run. Therefore, a watch Eco Drive works the same way as a quartz watch. The energy of a cell saver Eco Drive is not an ordinary battery. The following differences are that it is not affected by the normal charge and discharge. You must remember that the energy of cells are environmentally friendly because it does not contain the chemicals found in most other types of watch batteries. You have replace the another one in a place where you purchased this watch.
