/dev/null Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 To sum it up, the OP's link is a commercial to invest in a company pushing wireless electricity. Not exactly a new concept either. Tesla (the 19th & 20th century genius, not the 21st century car company) tried and failed to harness the power of the Earth to broadcast wireless electricity. The concept is put to use with wireless phone charging stations. These work on low voltage devices at a very short range. Now applied to a world wide power grid? How much power will it take to generate all this "free" electricity? How many transmitter towers would be needed? How much extra power is needed to compensate for energy lost in transmission? It takes energy to make energy. It takes energy to transmit energy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a discussion here on TBD approx 10 years ago about good investment opportunities and I told some of my fellow patrons much to their dismay the marijuana industry was about to explode. This is a similiar opportunity in my humble opinion. Edited September 30, 2018 by Figster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other predictions from ten years ago you got right? include those you got wrong as well, probably 90 percent of them you got dead wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wirelessly. He went to a Catholic School. They were very "happy" when He announced Tesla was the person He picked... LoL... Oh, and the sparks/shocks He was producing. Very mild. BUT He still had to plug small coil in. LoL... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes energy to make energy. It takes energy to transmit energy. Power can get piggy backed station to station from a central location. Its not another way to generate its another way to transmit. (through the air) One day electric cars will be driving our highways without ever having to stop for refueling.

Nobody ever said I will be sitting on the sidelines for something this big , nor am I recommending to anyone what they should invest their hard earned money on. Just a good topic I want my fellow patrons aware of that might change the world as we know it. 8 minutes ago, Augie said: Maybe he bet that money on the Vikings?

Just a good topic I want my fellow patrons aware of that might change the world as we know it. I don’t know what will be next, but one thing we know is the world is changing at such a ridiculous pace that our kids will see things we couldn’t even dream of. When I was a kid the phone had a curly cord attached to the wall, you had to rotary dial and had to wait for the 9’s and 0’s (hated those #’s!) and the whole family shared it, maybe even with other families. Now? School kids have phones that contain most of the world’s knowledge in their hands. AND IT’S STILL ACCELERATING! Who saw that? Not me.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has been invented in the last 60 years that make our home life, chores around the house easier. Talking brand new invention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
