WEC Wireless extension cable.
That will be the product to freak out nervous wifi haters .
( I know someone who's cat saves them at night --By sleeping on the router )

Is that what’s meant by POIP... power over IP

 

[Mike Johnson]

Just don't stand between the transmitter and receiver, or if you do wear a beanie hat and rubber soled shoes.

 

[pirate]

Agreed! All that radiation...

 

[Mike Johnson]

Could effect your pacemaker, you will either run very fast or keel over.

This would be my choice of ppe

I went to the chemist today and asked the assistant "what kills the Corona Virus?"

She replied to me "Ammonia Cleaner"

I said "Oh, I am sorry, I thought you worked here"

love the wifi power distribution.
I wonder how many people believe it to be real?
far to many for humanity to remain intact I think!!

I don't have a pacemaker...was more worried about my gonads!

tesla worked very hard on wireless distribution of electricity.
p.s. not the electric car guy (for you young ones)

it got him ridicule in the scientific community. now we DO HAVE the ability to transmit power through the air, just has the small problem of causing damage to anybody who stands between transmitter and receiver.

its just the small matter of power concentration.
a 400 Watt hair drier, you could focus on my entire hand for hours and I would not consider it dangerous.

a 400 Watt soldering iron focused on my right nipple might cause a noise that would wake the neighbours!!

If you get past all of the conspiracy theories and other junk he did get somewhere with it.

And so did Brunel with the atmospheric railway and look how that ended.

Oh...and just to add to the debate...
remember when a wee upstart joined the hi-fi bandwagon in the 70s and dared to market amplifiers with ICs? Nobody believed the hype, nobody bought Amstrad gear...
oh, wait...

Some of the Amstrad hifi stuff was shocking. Definitely built to a price.

When Clive Sinclair sold out to our version of Donald Trump in 1985 Mr Sugar revolutionised the computer market and allowed the ordinary man on the street to have one of decent quality of their own.

back on topic......

Thinking a mask is going to stop Covid-19 is the same as thinking that your underpants will protect everyone from a fart.

 

[Mike Johnson]

No underpants are meant to protect your trousers from a follow through.

so that's what made the skid marks. Traffic Police thought I'd braked hard.
