But there’s one wire you haven’t been able to get rid of yet—the power cord.Researchers are working on ways to circumvent the need for a direct electrical connection for power, and they are experiencing some success. Recently, investigators were able to use current flowing through a primary coil to power a 60 W lightbulb connected to a secondary coil 2.0 m away, with approximately 15% efficiency. The coils were large and the efficiency low, but it’s a start. The wireless power transfer system is outlined in Figure VI.2.
