the only way would be for a portable generator to transform particles in the air into electricty (by using them to run the generaor which would produce the electricity).

I really can't see it happening though at least not for another 100 years, hell it'd be THE best form of environmentally friendly power.

we can convert sea water to fresh water... just takes too much money... lol

I have read much on electricity and have studied quite alot about electronics and even went to college a little while to study it. I recall reading an article that made reference to electricity being transfered without wires. See, the problem is, everybody wants to send electricity through the air and I don't think this is feasable. (Excluding RF frequencies, etc. of course.) But it is feasable to send it through the earth. (OK, now quit laughing and read on..)

But, I remember reading about the famous Nicola Tesla and his claim that he could transfer energy (Electricity) through the earth. He was the inventor of the tesla coil and was experimenting with x-rays before anyone even really knew what they were. He was also heavily involved in AC current, or what now is referred to as "household current". Nicola Tesla and Thomas Edison were at war over whose type of electricity was supierior. (AC vs. DC) Edison referred to Tesla's voltage system as "The Electrocutioner's Current" and referred being electrocuted as being "Westinghoused"

There is an excellent bio, etc. on Nicola Tesla at Wikipedia.org. Maybe we should read a little more about electricities history before we say that "wireless electrical service" is not possible. I myself would love to see the technology come to light to make that possible.


Also try looking up telluric currents, it is VERY interesting.

It is possible in theory.

What a fascinating subject.

I think , they have already visualized, this in Cartoon named "Centurions"....THANKS to Micro's Idea...
Where , they used to beam onto objects , using Rays ....

Similarly , maybe , the energy source , can be beamed onto , to an existing battery , in a distance , to Charge , it and use it onto .

It must be that , the beam should not diverge , or maybe it should be a bare minimum .
Hence , energy can be beamed onto .

Indeed a very fascinating subject, i can't not say my opinion. So i think the radio waves and microwaves are already a threat to our bodies (carciogenic). But i guess energy can be transmitted through air (i don't know if it's economically feasable as the air isn't as good transmitter as copper say or aluminium ) but i've read once that space solar plants could transmitt back the energy to earth by microwaves( perhaps some very high density beams) to a receiver at some height that it wouldn't affect organic life. Then again it would loose very much energy through air ionisation and heat dissipation. I still think the most advanced way of transmitting energy will be nano-particles-based, i dunno how but air transmitting isn't that good as i see things. We're already surrounded by too many radiowaves and magnetic fields and static electricity and so on. This can't be good for the cells inside us.

You're about a century late, my friend. LONG LIVE THE TESLA-COIL. Ofcourse, it isn't exactly practical but the basic concepts are there to be worked upon.

Check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil for more info.

I don't thinkt his would work. the currents running throguh the air would damage electrical devices. planes, hospital etc. wouldn't be able tow rok properly because of the equipment getting damaged. It may even harm people, like an electric shock.

I HAVE TO SAY AGAIN!! Everyone thinks electricity has to be transmitted through the AIR! What about the Earth, It's core and it's mantle? Both have different electrical potential. You need to do more research about this subject before we say it is not feasable!

please someone explain to me how can one send electric power through the ground and receive it on the other end in the same form...i mean without wires?...doesn't it dissipate like the residual electricity from grounding plugs and stuff...
