    Nikola Tesla "my inventions"

    Just got hold of a copy of his Autobiography (courtesy Camerabloke) not a big book and an easy read, seems he was a very complex person as well as being in my mind a genius. Worth a read.

    Tesla Power Wall ....

    I was in Cambridge yesterday and Tesla had a unit in the main precinct where they had a couple of their cars and the Power Wall unit ...... Anyone got any experience with this technology? To me it seems a fairly good idea, to charge a battery and use it "later" Any views?
