[MLB-WIRELESS] Spectrum?

[Bryce Letcher]

The aforementioned ground to ground test rigs are hugely expensive
experimental units. Devices which are made from obtainium, as opposed to
unobtainium, are far less efficient, 30 to 40 % and have very limited range
at that.

As to the weight, how much do you think the collector is going to weigh,
bearing in mind the size required for say 30% of the 1kW to be collected?
It will make the Parkes scope look small  :)

Cheers
Bryce


Ground-ground demonstration rigs have shown efficiencies above 90%

And solar is not simple, as it's only during a small number of hours, and
the rest must be stored energy -- energy storage costs money, and is heavy,
and means you need *huge* arrays of cells to even have a small amount of
continuous power...  -- try doing 300W continuous with solar in under a
kilogram (or two).
