Nearly 125 years late, wireless recharging arrives by subbywan2008-08-22 08:58:19
  Wireless recharging is easy. by AndyA2008-08-22 09:14:33
    75%-90% isn't a bad start. (n/t) by subbywan2008-08-22 09:17:44
      At three feet. by bwkaz2008-08-22 09:35:23
        I think you are missing something. by AndyA2008-08-22 10:33:58
          ... Dang, yeah, you're right. by bwkaz 2008-08-22 12:19:21
You can't have an efficiency above 100%. The equation I had for efficiency in the other sub-thread gives an efficiency above 100% for any distance less than sqrt(6.75) = 2.59 feet. At two feet, for instance, you get 6.75 / 4 = 1.6875; that's invalid.

So never mind that then. Obviously it isn't inverse square. (Dang. ;-) )

              If you lower the frequency then by AndyA2008-08-22 13:22:54
                Hmm; that could be the intent. by bwkaz2008-08-22 13:26:47
                  But it could also "universalize" recharging. by merlin2008-08-22 13:31:11
                    Could... but won't by Menetlaus2008-08-22 13:45:38
                  but less cables = good. by AndyA2008-08-22 13:59:43
                    Maybe the average consumer. by bwkaz2008-08-22 14:20:44
