We all know that power can be transmitted wirelessly, whether through an exotic arcing setup like you might have seen many years ago in Nikola Tesla’s lab, or with the more modern (yet less spectacular) use of an inductive charging pad used for smartphones. To really understand this inductive charging principle give this wireless power kit from Electromechreation a try.
The device uses a powered coil of wires to wirelessly light up a 1 watt LED, or it can be configured to power an electrical motor. While fun for experimenters, this would also make a really excellent teaching tool for classroom use. You can see an earlier version in action in the video below:
As with some other products found here, this device started out as a Kickstarter campaign. Now it’s on Tindie. Listing here is as simple as making a blog post. If you’re looking for a place to list your crowdfunded items, or even somewhere to boost sales of an established product, why not give selling on Tindie a try?
