Applications would result in less dependency on batteries in low-powered devices

    Wouldn’t this just decrease the reception for rf devices? Isn’t it just stealing power from the system to power other devices?

      No more than any random objects.

      Think of it like a solar panel. Yes, it blocks light from things behind it, but it doesn’t suck light from nearby.

        That’s interesting! I thought that if you for example have a 50w RF transmitter, taking 40w from it would make it act as a 10w one for the other devices around it.

        Thx for the explanation :3
