That's horrible and possibly a deciding factor. I guess it had to be done in order to make it waterproof.


I concur, you really need the possibility of multiple battery loads in order to get full value out of this stuff.

Can you do non-conductive power transmission at reasonable weights and efficiencies? I mean, my toothbrush does it, but I can't speak to the charging rate.


Wireless power transmission can only be implemented using alternating current through induction. Very hard to implement this in any meaningful way for battery powered digital devices.
