Hey Marc,
you are aware of induction mats you can use to charge mobile phones without cables.
OK now imagine the whole house induction powered.
The Kitchen worktops all fitted with induction grids
all appliances then become wireless powered. Movemthe kettle or toaster or microwave or electric can opener wherever and simply use them. . .no need for wires n cables put it where you want and switch it on.
living room . . .TV, stereo, PC all induction powered and add wireless comms between them for true wireless equipment. Imagine the revolution as the rats nest of cables. . . GONE !!!
