A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The author’s solution essentially uses the batteries in the devices themselves to hold the energy.
Their point about power tool usage is a good one, except that they don’t discuss solar power surplus, which can be an issue.
But changing mindset to using electricity while it’s available instead of always assuming there will be a surplus of energy is a good one. The overall piece just seems a bit oversimplified.
