Scientists have demonstrated a simple way to transmit electricity through the air, raising the prospect of a world of wireless gadgets.

In the experiment, researchers lit a 60-watt light bulb from an energy source 7ft away using no power leads.

Yes, and they admitted that ... but ...

The concept of "WiTricity", as the scientists have dubbed the technology, is not new. At the start of the 20th century, the American inventor Nikola Tesla dreamed of wireless power and conducted experiments showing how it could be done. However, the huge coils he used to generate electromagnetic fields only managed a very low level of power transfer.

The new approach described in the journal Science relies on two coils joined by a resonating magnetic field.
