More Power To Heat

The cozy heat emitting from your laptop can be put to better use with concepts like the Piece Battery. Based on the idea of absorbing heat energy from sources like the TV and computers, the adhesive strip of Piece Battery converts the heat absorbed into electrical power that can be used as wireless charging for mobile devices. It’s a very novel concept that requires a bit of refinement and technical support.
