At 1:00, they claim microwaves will trigger a photoelectric cell used as an anti-tamper mechanism in a mine if someone is "beaming" him with microwaves. That doesn't make any sense. Photoelectric cells are there to detect... photons. Light. And they're indeed used as anti-tamper mechanisms.
- LukeB42 4y agoYeah it's supposed to be non-ionising. Curious claim. Excuse me while I read about what happened to Tesla's research on my wirelessly charged phone.
