also Tessala (can't spell) using witricity to transmit massive voltages over great distances, one example is that in a eletrical field you can light flourencent lights with out plugging them in.

the laws of physics allow this to work, but im not sure if the metal frame would interfere. Also other eletronics can work in a witricity feild if they don't opperate on the same frequency they will not conduct the current. Which is why you make sure that the cycles of the field is very high (10megahertz or higher).

MIT tested this device, there was 40% power loss in transmission. If we weren't going for speed this could be viable i think. You know for a engineering award.
You are correct, WiTricity is physically possible. however, probably incredibly destructive. Look at the nature of electricity and plasma. Plasmas (this includes fire and electricity) Plasmas in their nature are designed to destroy everything they get into contact with. The amount of energy require to transfer electrical potential is incredibly powerful, and can destroy not only human cells, but electrical circuits. everything in the path of these waves will be instantly destroyed. You can essentially kiss all of your electronic components good bye. And no, these cheap little electronic devices aren't made to withstand such a destructive force. Hope this clears up any notion to use such an experimental procedure.
