The concept of sending power wirelessly isn't new
Many owners of four-wheel-drive vehicles never venture off paved roads. They use their rugged Ford Explorers and Toyota Land Cruisers to get to the mall and cruise along highways.Not Gary and Monika Wescott. They've been testing their four-wheel-drive Ford pickup truck - and themselves - on a rigorous 10,000-mile trip across Russia this winter and spring.
The Wescotts and their truck have been shuddering through temperatures of minus-60 Fahrenheit and below; skidding along "ice roads" on rivers frozen 20 feet deep; and now face mud and crater-like potholes on remote roads as spring brings HP DV5 battery Russia out of the deep freeze.
The concept of sending power wirelessly isn't new, but its wide-scale use has been dismissed as inefficient because electromagnetic energy generated by the charging device would radiate in all directions.One advance was announced last fall, when MIT physics professor Marin Soljacic said he had figured out how to use specially tuned waves.
The key is to get the recharging device and the gadget that needs power to resonate at the same frequency, allowing the efficient exchange of energy.It's similar to how an opera star can break a wine glass that happens to resonate at the same frequency as her voice.
That's not very many, and I think people will hold on to their landlines for some time — or at least until other technologies become just as reliable and easy to use.
Telecom folks talk about how things need to be four 9's, or working 99.99 percent of the time. That means, you should have a connection when HP ZV5000 battery the electricity goes out or when large numbers of people make phone calls at the same time. For some people, it means your burglary alarm service should be able to call the alarm company when there's been a break-in.
I cannot remember the last time I briefed my relatively low-tech spousal unit about a new high-tech product, showed her the device and she didn't curl her lip.In other words, she's a hard sell when it comes to tech toys. Not this time. "I'm taken by it," she said.
For those of us neck deep into digital/electronic gizmos, it's sometimes difficult to remember that there are tens of millions of people like my wife - people who wouldn't know a bit from a byte (and whose mental health may be the better for it).
Burien Toyota now has a department dedicated to sales of radio-controlled cars, making it the Northwest's largest retailer of Tamiya-brand remote-controlled, DV6000 battery-powered cars and trucks. The cost of these 1/10-scale speedsters and the radio gear and battery chargers needed to race them: about $250 to $400.
Before racing starts on a recent Sunday, Meek calls all racers to a drivers meeting. Meek starts off the meeting asking in a loud, enthusiastic voice, "What are we here to do?" Looking up from their cars, the racers reply, "Have fun!"Racing begins with Formula 1 cars and sedans. Then it's time for the trucks.
