Cool. I've always thought that devices should incorporate multiple means of recharging, the most obvious two (behind solar) being kinetic and ambient heat reclamation. I mean, smart phones already have mini accelerometers and gyroscopes, so it should be a natural progression. Much more reasonable than just allotting all the space to the giant, archaic, chemical soup vats from the 1970's that we call batt'ries. Oh, I'm sorry. That's right. "Batt'ries" are from the 40's. "Badduries" are from the 70's.
Energy gathering and reclamation methods might be from ambient sound and other EM fields.
There is virtually no reason why a device need ever be out of power (apart, I suppose, from a full ejaculation, such as maybe a weapon discharge), and definitely no reason for cords. (The trouser style, I have little to no opinion on.)
Somebodies with the know-a-ma-how to make molecular/nano-sized gadgets, like they've already done with atomic level capacitors, and molecular motors, need to build a thingy that incorporates multiple cells of each of those concepts, to continuously charge a next generation of the battery. Since they would be so small and there would be millions of each in a system, they needn't even be in one chunky place, (i.e., battery), but instead could utilize any extraneous nooks and crannies, and be in and around, coating the particular components of a device that they're powering. The increased proximity of power source and component would very probably improve efficiency, due to the decrease in energy bleed over distance.
So yeah. Somebody get on that.
Thanks to Tim for mentioning the thing at the link, and thanks to Guy for the link.
