Everyone isn't like you Eric. You shouldn't use your rich rural self with money to waste as a guide to what regular people will like. Really?? Over 70,000 folks a year are buying Telsa's alone. Do you have a beef with pure electric cars? Many of us are charging them at home with our own PV arrays. Clean, reliable electricity with no emissions. A number of us are leading the way to a cleaner, more sustainable future with what we are doing today and have been doing the last few decades. I guess a number of you folks want to be stuck in the past subservient to some very rich folks who want to exploit the world and don't care about the consequences. And don't be dishonest and slippery with facts. Halo is almost as good as cable in efficiency at about 94%. Cable = depends on the cable and car. The extra cost is about 20c to use halo instead of a cable. People don't want much hassle to save 20c. Hmm, I measured the voltage drop from the service entrance panel (circuit breaker box) to my car years ago after I personally installed the charging system and the losses to the car were less than 1/2 of 1%. Halo doesn't even come close. Have you studied the Patent for Halo at the U.S. Patent office? You should crack the books and study the physics of Fields and Waves. It will give you a grasp on the problem of inductive charging.
