I reckon that they should develop inductive loop charging. If they could tune to 50 / 60 Hz most built up places have enough residual electromagnetic field at mains frequency to charge phones all the time !

I almost searched for a hammer pic with the intention of saying it would be a better quick fix  :lol: :lol: :lol:

The latest thing( or so I am assured) is a development of a relatively large battery on the back of a cell phone. It is claimed that it will last a week.

A bit like these stupid electric cars that cost the earth and find it impossible to go to get anywhere without repeated charges.


Just having a rant.

Hi there, all,

Slightly   :offtopic: but a comment about A-connector to micro USB cables:

I have a 2.5" hard drive in an external case with a micro USB connector.  I tried to use it recently and it made the 'click - click - click' of death!  'Strange', I said to myself, 'it was OK the other day'.  Just on the off-chance, I tried it again with another cable and it started up and appeared on my desk-top as it ought.

I have a suspicion that some of these cables are offered for charging purposes and only have the 0v and 5v conductors fitted, no data cores!  The trouble is the micro-USB connector is too small to admit my multi-meter test prods!!!
