non-rechargeable batteries
Yeah, why are they still a thing? Recharchable have all the advantages but more.

Elections merely transfer the power, like a drive shaft or cogs.
Even with DC you need a loop.
Carbon fuel one-use mentality where you burn your supply (chemically stored energy) doesn’t apply, to non-rechargeable batteries make it seem so.

Low self discharge. Good for ultra low power devices like remote controls or lights only used on occasion where a rechargeable battery would self discharge faster than the rate of actual use.

Let’s hope those paper batteries shown at CES aren’t bs marketing (that they truly aren’t harmful as waste & are comparable to normal batteries).

Ah right, forgot about that.

It’s even crazier than that. It’s not even the electrons at the “leading edge” it’s the EM field they create along the entirety of the wires that actually bring the power.

And the follow-up with a physical experiment after the first video started a huge drama. youtu.be/oI_X2cMHNe0

God I hate that video, he explains everything so badly to the point of completely misinforming viewers. He’s talking about a special situation of AC current, but uses DC in the thought experiment. He makes it seem as if the field travels to the load in a direct path and the wires don’t matter. No, the EM field is completely based on the wire.

No, the leading edge of the mechanical transfer of power - I was trying to make a faux comparison that electrons would be the inside of the shaft/cog & the fields the leading edges.
I mangled the comparison, should have given up on it. Vibes are hard to compare with anything non-vibes.
