First, surprise, Is about getting energy from a magnet. If you coil a copper wire around a magnet, according to Faraday's Law of Induction, the magnet will generate power without moving. Faraday was a famous genius so I believe it could work. It could also make a battery that gives power for decades.


there's no such thing as free energy.

In a reply to your Sandia's cooler you can check Thermaltake Engine 27. Its based on the same thing but it is physically impossible to be 50 times more efficient..

You typed some bu***t conspiracy theories and products which are dumb like "free energy" like f the physics. My question is why you do that?

Also don't reply to me without looking up the facts or you'll look stupid... Just warning you. I always back up my facts.

In that case please back up your facts. 90% of the points you have written have no source or link of any kind.

I dont have the time 4 that but its easy enough to look it up yourself. I'm too busy researching more stuff...

Why creating a thread then (with derail potential) at all? It's not like we all got too much time on our hands to look up stuff you say on the internet if its true or not.

@user Chingy: and editing it and marking as new to bring attention..

@user ModJuicer: As i spotted that earlier you have "Super User" rank. You think you are above everybody and you post and create stupid threads without any knowledge about it. You are asking people to make something for you so desperate that you edit your pots few times a day or a week (stranded II content and threads for example) screaming about it.. Please stop making this kind of behavior because its immature.. You have no time? so dont create this kind of threads because you cant reply with any arguments. Cheers

I've heard and read about some of these things, many are impractical, albeit theoretically feasible.
Some are going to become common technologies and some are just gimmicky looking things.

You included Thorium NR in between "Cool Rocket Science" for whatever reason.

About the Mind Controlled Tech, as far as I know, Elon is working on Neuralink so I'm sure if not him, someone else will realize it to the dream standards of thought-controlled devices.

For wireless electricity, if I recall correctly, they are making a technology that uses lasers to charge your phone (although it would need a 1-2 cm add-on). It stops immediately upon hitting a person's skin so as not to harm him/her, apparently. The concept described was that you could come into a cafe and as long as you're not covering your phone with your hands, it'll get charged if it's placed on the table or something. I recall it was a TED talk.

Hydrogen fuel is impractical. It's hard to create, it weighs a ton, the cells break easily, there's no infrastructure for it (and no big demand a.k.a. reason to create it) and whatever is out there will turn out more expensive than say owning an electric car. If you're an environmental nut who won a lottery, I'm not saying it's a bad idea but none of us here are.

I am genuinely surprised nobody mentioned transistors. Smaller does not equal "more efficient".
It's practical in the sense that you can cram more things in the same amount of space and if you have more things then they can do more thing things. Which means some of those things for example "heat" are going to become a problem. Not to mention that the closer you get to such sizes, the more chance that some elementary particle like an electron will just decide to "jump" over onto another atom and screw things over (like corrupt computer values).
It's much more practical to just use more "stable" things. It's just a matter of how you synchronize everything to work smoothly.

Your link for Ultracapacitors is dead. Although if I recall correctly, it's one of those things where you can use graphene to charge stuff really fast except for the part that the amount of charge it can hold is actually very small so you gotta trickle down to the muddy solutions.

I wouldn't have shared the scope link cause it just makes you look like you're clueless or malicious. Not good for your reputation either way.

Like I mentioned, I'm hoping/awaiting for some of them, am skeptical/realistic about most of them and reasonably sure some are just attention-catchers.

Personally, I think that the nano antennas are pretty cool, and could prove useful . The claim that they are 95% more powerful than solar panels, could be true. This kinda don't make too much sense, but think of it this way. Think of water as solar energy. What absorbs water faster and more efficiently? A board or a sponge?
      Say a solar panel is a wood board, which will eventually absorb a bit of water, but not to efficiently.
      Now, think of nano antenna board as a sponge. It basically just absorbes the water.
      A solar panel loses about 4% - 6% of energy because it is so reflective and only absorbes 15% of solar energy shone onto it. And, they constantly need cleaning.
      A nano board (that's kinda how I think of them as), would probably need to be cleaned a lot more
than a solar panel because even the smallest of dust partials could block the flow of energy. (probably wouldn't be to much of a problem, just the tiniest flow of air could probably clean them). Back to losing energy though, I don't think that nano antennas would lose much energy. If you have pencil, what would the area be if you added all the sides together? Then, what if you made the pencils longer, so there is a bit more area? Then, add 500,000,000 more and you might have the same area as a solar panel. Plus, them being ALOT cheaper that solar panels, they might have a future.
     Altho since they are nano, or "one billionth", they seam that they would be flimsy and weak, so ya.


     If you thought this made absouluty no sense, you are probably right.
Solar Panel Energy Convert.

Would the transparent casting protect the nano antennas? Or how strong are the nano antennas? What material/materials are they made out of? Just wondering because "nano boards" seem that they would be very fragile. As the name implies, nano, or, one one billionth, they just seem to flimsy. Maby making them impractical for use. But they still seem like a good invention.

Sorry. Since I have begun to actually dedicated some time to stranded II on this website I decided to stop trolling. For anyone who took this seriously, sorry dudes. lol
Typical "OopsDidntMeanTo". You obviously believed it and just don't want to face the consequences.
