Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!! It's all Tesla crap. We could have had a century of free safe energy. It was the FREE part that THEY didn't like. YOU ESSAY! YOU ESSAY!
Kinda like the old light bulb that never burns out, why would they sell those to us? We would never need to buy more again!! Unless you broke one by accident but that's about it. Can't have all of us with unlimited light bulbs, how would they ever profit from that?
Longest burning lightbulb was built by a competitor of Thomas Edison and has been burning almost constantly for 110+ years.
Well they're only good for the chix that hit the scale between "night light" and "no night light" if ya know what I mean
there was a thing on the AM news about the Tesla electric car. cost 100000 bucks. they put one in a car smasher and it broke the smasher. and then there's this tin foil conspiracy theory spread by left wing takers casting aspersions on job creators, http://www.silverbearcafe.com/private/07.13/50plus.html
Before I say this, let me absolute clarify I mean NOT to start a debate on this, though hopefully this would not imply such even without this disclaimer. Trying to wrap my surf-starved brain about this. But if it's using existing wireless signals from tv towers, satellite's etc., don't we still need energy to power the shiz which CREATES the signals? My own inability to understand aside, this certainly seems like they would have a massive ability to be used in at least a complementary fashion this old school tech we're all up on these days.
We have those now. They are called CFL bulbs. I have had most of mine for 6-7 years, moved them to multiple places, and never had one burn out. Now with the LED's, I hear they will last even longer.
That's not really true. RF signals carry no where near the level of power required in any electronic devices of the last 100 years. Only recently have we been able to create devices efficient enough to utilize low energy sources. Even now, we have a long way to go before your cell phone can run without a battery. It is pretty cool technology, and I can see it being the future. It reminds me of the movie Southland Tales.
I wouldn't waste time on that second theory. It has been busted multiple times. You can go down to VW right now and buy a Passat TDI that will easily net you over 52 mpg. The US uses different standards for MPG ratings, which is usually what leads to discrepancies when comparing to other countries. I will say the EU has way more fuel efficient car options, but that is because diesel is accepted and sold in many more applications over there. The compression ignition engine will always be more efficient than spark ignition.
I still have some in use I installed in '95. My house is old and has the porcelain post wire circuit that would blow out a bulb within a month or two. My nephew, a right wing Fox New azz, told my dad they were dangerous and convinced him to throw them all out.
Hahaha, yeah, I have noticed some people really hate on CFL. I love them. I have one in a shop light that has been banged and dropped numerous times, yet is still lives on. Incandescent bulbs would blow if you looked at them the wrong way.
