The man did not continue to mention that nikola tesla did exactly what he just did in his flourescent light tube demonstrations to the public. If you don't believe me, wiki it. Tesla was a hundred years ahead of his time.

Tesla never thought of a magnetic field. The technoligies involved are different from the usual electric field electricity. It is so far efficient for replacing a battery which makes it inetersting, it can replace wires that are meant to charge things other than provide direct full scale electricity. Besides technology always improve, so probably that efficiency would rise as the years go by. I'm sure during Tesla's times there were lots of conspiracy t.'s, and people who didn't want to believe
