摘要： A bicycle component is provided other than a rear derailleur and a drive unit. The bicycle component includes an electrical part, a rechargeable power source and a non-contact charging portion. The rechargeable power source is electrically connected to the electrical part. The non-contact charging portion is configured to wirelessly receive external electric power and to supply the external electric power to the rechargeable power source. A non-contact charging method is also provided for charging the rechargeable power source of the bicycle component.

摘要： A photovoltaic device of a human-powered vehicle comprises a photovoltaic unit and electronic controller circuitry. The photovoltaic unit includes a light receiving surface. The electronic controller circuitry is electrically connected to the photovoltaic unit. The photovoltaic unit is arranged to overlap at least partially the electronic controller circuitry as viewed in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to the light receiving surface.

摘要： An electrical device of a rotational device for a human-powered vehicle comprises an electronic controller. The electronic controller is configured to operate with first power consumption in a first state and configured to operate with second power consumption lower than the first power consumption in a second state. The electronic controller is configured to change a state of the electrical device from the first state to the second state in a case where a first sleep condition is met for a first sleep determination time in the first state. The electronic controller is configured to change the state of the electrical device from the first state to the second state in a case where a second sleep condition is met for a second sleep determination time in the first state. The second sleep determination time is shorter than the first sleep determination time.

摘要： A power-supplying system of a human-powered vehicle comprises a first electric power source and electronic controller circuitry. The first electric power source is electrically connectable with a photovoltaic unit to store electricity supplied from the photovoltaic unit. The electronic controller circuitry is electrically connectable with the photovoltaic unit and a second electric power source. The electronic controller circuitry is configured to charge the second electric power source in a first state using electricity which is supplied from the photovoltaic unit without passing through the first electric power source. The electronic controller circuitry is configured to charge the first electric power source in a second state using electricity supplied from the photovoltaic unit instead of charging the second electric power source.
