It's a nice invention..
I am eagerly waiting for that to come..

imagine a 2 Kwatt consumer connected like this and try crossing the 10 Megahertz beam.Talk to me later!!!

If it was really this easy to "Transmit" electricity, then why don't we just use existing radio waves (hmm, maybe even static noise) to do the same thing?
Besides, there is the fundamental law of energy to make use: However much power you would need to light that bulb you would have to put into radiation (erm, radio/electromagnetic). Aren't there laws and safety regulations against that?

"If it was really this easy to "Transmit" electricity, then why don't we just use existing radio waves (hmm, maybe even static noise) to do the same thing?"

Because transmitting electricity through electromagnetic waves is inefficient, electromagnetic waves disperses when they propagate through the air loses some of the energy

Thank you very much for this information. I like this site

Thanks matthew. Apparently
