@UCUFuby9d6oRcj2VKwo_f5-Q yeah if I think they’d have to get to work well enough so that it can actually charge your phone to a decent extent, then they could do it,even than I don’t think it would be a complete alternative to chargers but instead more like a little extra feature that goes with the phone, sorta like reverse wireless
In most optimal conditions sun's energy is about 1100W/m2 on Earth's surface. So a theoretical 100% efficient solar panel on Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra's backside would give about 12W power if perfectly oriented in perfect conditions with this (impossible) perfect solar panel. The best mass produced (soon, 2022) panel is 29% efficient, so with that the max power would be 3,5W. This seems nice, but to get anywhere near this the phone's backside must be perfectly facing the midday sun from clear sky. For example the lighting indoors gives only miniscule power levels (0,0035W-0,01W when optimally oriented) which are meaningless for a modern phone. So unless a person spends a lot of time stationary outdoors, phone on table, backside directly facing the sun, in very sunny climate, there is no use for solar panel in a phone. Also keeping a phone in direct sunlight heats it up shortening its lifespan - so this negates all possible benefits.
Oh, I checked and it seems this latest flexible solar panel tech is much better than it used to be, but still with all the nanomaterials it has efficiency of ~8,8%. So it's about 2,5x less than normal, cheap non-flexible panels.
Welcome to the future. First off, I have followed Exegers progress over a couple of years. I've seen them go from a developing phase to where it is today - on the brink of a global launch. I would like to share some thoughts: Exeger (the creater of Powerfoyle) have developed a solar cell which can harvest power from any lightsource. They have the ability to optimize the solar cell depending on which circumstances the solar cell will operate under. Some of you raise concern that the solar cell will be useless indoor, this is not the case. Exeger can activly choose to make their solar cell more efficient for indoor use. Of course the solar cell works best under sunlight, but the indoor charging is over 1000 % more efficient than todays solar cells, and that says a lot. To top this off, Exeger can print their solar cell in any shape, in practically any material and can be bent to almost any shape. All this from a solar cell with a thickness of merely 0.8 mm. To put this under perspective, a human nail is around 0.4 mm thick. Exeger will revolutionize the way we charge our consumer electronics. We will no longer be bound to power outlets. Imagine your gadget running out of battery and all you have to do is to place it under any source of light to charge it back up. There is not a single person who owns a gadget who wouldn't want this feature. I think all of you have problems grasping the true meaning of this invention. The breakthrough might even equal to that of smartphones. Once you have experienced the benefits of being able to charge under any light, will you ever chose a product which doesn't have Powerfoyle integrated over one who does if they practically cost the same (yes, consumer electronics with Powerfoyle will practically cost the same)? Exeger is soon releasing a new version (planned to launch at the start of 2022) of the solar cell which will increase efficiency by up to 300%. Soon, very soon, your phone will also be able to charge under any light. What you see here, the headphones, is just the start of a global breakthrough. I would recommend you all to visit Exegers website to learn more.
Yes, the specs they listed are probably some super optimal situation with perfect mid day sun and low volume etc. Still would be interesting to know how these actually perform irl. EDIT: I checked and it seems their idea is based on very low power consumption (idk about the ANC though...). They list only 0,056W average consuption - so if that's true in practice, it's not unrealistic to get from that solar panel (though not indoors).
I checked and it seems this latest flexible solar panel tech is much better than it used to be, but still with all the nanomaterials it has efficiency of ~8,8%. So it's about 2,5x less than normal, cheap non-flexible panels.
If they manage to make this technology work with headphones, I hope they will extend it to earbuds/earpods and smartwatches (and why not phones one day) to make them last for days without the need to charge them all the time
@@mourgos1234 Ear buds are put in a case, and that case is not too small to fit a panel. But as a reply to what you're saying, this technology can have solar "panels" as small as 4mm x 4mm. So, in theory, they could put this powerfoyle on them. However, if you have hair etc etc in the way, that is an issue so it will probably not be done. That being said, these products do not have to be in direct sunlight. So, a smartwatch with a powerfoyle band, and or a smartphone case with powerfoyle on it - That could definitely do wonders. Obviously out of pocket, but if you keep it in your pocket all day you hardly need charge anyway.
Well technically they would because apparently you can get significantly more than an hours worth of listening time even on cloudy days from wearing them for an hour. Meaning no matter what you are getting more playtime than the amount of time you are spending charging the battery
@@WeAreTheDraiken maybe they have the circuitry set up in such a way where the batteries stop charging after a certain point till the batteries are low in power then they charge again
1:34 Will thought it was funny that Lew was very old and liked solar calculator, Lew didn't like it at all! Look at his face after Will choked and started saying "yes, of course, very cool"
I wonder if in 10 years or a couple of decades, whether it will be a normal occurrence to see technology products such as phones and laptops with infinite battery life by using power from light. Will it be taken for granted? Would be super cool to see imo.
Tell this to CPU and graphic card How much power they need They need super conductors to execute this idea for long term Performance in practical manner
They could also just make a headphone rack, which when the weight of the headset depresses a switch that turns on a timed, exact contour LED light over the top of the headband for a quick topup in the middle of the night. Easy peasy.
@@raghuveer4552 Agreed. I have no regrets not upgrading my tech throughout the last years. Innovation has come to a halt as far as i use my tech products
Is that really a problem that needed to be fixed? Current headphones like XM4's can go upto 30 hrs already and it only needs 3 hrs of charge which you can do overnight easily and then don't have to charge again for days.
BUT how about the SQ of those hp? With both SOLARr + ANC for $200....not really. generally speaking any hp with ANC are always less than stellar SQ compared to non anc hp.
Well they were claiming that you can get twice the playback in a cloudy day so even if it was exaggerated by like 50%-100% you would still get 1 hour playback with a 1 hour charge on a cloudy day
So if you can keep the battery topped off by keeping it near a window will we have to worry about uv rays causing damage to the color of the headphones? Like color fade?
$200 is honestly worth it especially if they did it properly. However, as MrMobile says, better wait for second generation because they can iron out the kinks.
Need to impress Willy Do to make sure the product is legit...🤣🤣🤣
Later clips is like a news channel🔥
It is a news channel
@@Priyajit_Ghosh yeah 😅😅
That's because the concept of the show is that they react to news
Can't wait for phones to do the same
That will prolly get expensive tho 😳

Maybe it will last longer with graphene, but everlasting ? Idk

You sound like you work there or something 😂 but thank you for info
With ANC on, one hour under the sun will last 5 songs.

I love how Will stands up for himself. You tell him haha

ear buds are too small to fit any panel on them though :P
Also watch doesn't face the sun at all times unlike the top of headphones.

I had the Solar wireless keyboard from Logitech, it always had power. I hope these headphones work just as well
For real , you said "had" not "have " so was this like a long time ago or recent and like is it a good product in general or not?
Well technically they would because apparently you can get significantly more than an hours worth of listening time even on cloudy days from wearing them for an hour. Meaning no matter what you are getting more playtime than the amount of time you are spending charging the battery
@@zahidshabir4038 is it possible though this amount of continuous charging could eventually wear out the cells.
@@WeAreTheDraiken maybe they have the circuitry set up in such a way where the batteries stop charging after a certain point till the batteries are low in power then they charge again
@@zahidshabir4038 well I guess that might work
I listen to you daily on my walks.
Maybe now you'll be able to charge your headphones while you do it
@@noisycarlos I’m sure I can, I am in Arizona .
@@JS-es8pk oh yeah. You'll never have to charge them!
@@noisycarlos would be nice to test them.
Hullo Apple, this is what it means for any gadgets to come without a charger.
👍
Lew to Willy: Dude... Come on... Real bros gets excited for a fellow brother
1:04😂👀
Lew should take this to test!!!!
Dont think they work in my room
1:34 Will thought it was funny that Lew was very old and liked solar calculator, Lew didn't like it at all! Look at his face after Will choked and started saying "yes, of course, very cool"
Yo Lew does that so often. He'll just stare at will with his hands touching like that
which headphones are u r wearing... they look cool
They look like AIAIAI headphones
@@darkknightkano8758 TMA-2 right?
The doggo at the start is so cute
We can just have anc headphones with double A or Triple A batteries
not as efficient
it'll create more waste
I wonder if in 10 years or a couple of decades, whether it will be a normal occurrence to see technology products such as phones and laptops with infinite battery life by using power from light. Will it be taken for granted? Would be super cool to see imo.
Tell this to CPU and graphic card
How much power they need
They need super conductors to execute this idea for long term Performance in practical manner
They could also just make a headphone rack, which when the weight of the headset depresses a switch that turns on a timed, exact contour LED light over the top of the headband for a quick topup in the middle of the night. Easy peasy.
they charge with a cable too USB c
But how will the sunlight affect the other materials? UV can break down plastics and synthetics.
Remember when headphones had a wire and nobody had to worry about any of this shit. Those were the days
At this point, companies are just creating problems and selling solutions
@@raghuveer4552 Agreed. I have no regrets not upgrading my tech throughout the last years. Innovation has come to a halt as far as i use my tech products
What's the name of the headphones Lew's using on this podcast?
that's the real wireless charging
That is eco-friendly. Time to save energy!
Technically it still charges tho..
But u don't have to connect it
Any mention if they plan on releasing a small washing machine like device?
The most basic radio (crystal radio) didn't need batteries. Anything might be possibul
Is that really a problem that needed to be fixed?
Current headphones like XM4's can go upto 30 hrs already and it only needs 3 hrs of charge which you can do overnight easily and then don't have to charge again for days.
Best tech /news channel out there
And they are just talking it's not even a news channel!!
Lew just wants willy du to be little more passionate about new products
Will go well with my solar powered keyboard
@Lew Later aaaaand reported
what's the headphones lew's using in the video?
JBL was doing a crowd funding project?
All fun and games until the headphones blow up on someone’s head
WE have to put it near a window... I think just plugging into an outlet or portable charger would be better.
Please hire me to react to anything you’re gonna tell me...you’ll be impressed
we will have some burning wigs on the 6 O'clock news
HE LIKES THE IDEA 💡
Citizen has had this technology in their Eco drive watches for years
Thats cool coz I sleep with lights on, like full on lights not lampshade. I use fluorescent bulbs. So its like killing two birds with one stone.
Just wanna lie on the beach from morning to evening listening music. Best life😀😀
Hi, is it dual-Channel?
Are the headphones available on Amazon?
There’s no forever , nothing last forever
Thunderf00t, where art thou?
Engineers at Tesla :👁️👄👁️✍️
Lew what headphones you wearing?
10 yrs later pc that never runs out of power
It's battery will die in DC UNIVERSE
can someone tell me who is the other guy in all later clips?
charging shouldn't generate that much heat. these things have tiny batteries so it should be ok. also heat shield could be used on head pad
BUT how about the SQ of those hp? With both SOLARr + ANC for $200....not really. generally speaking any hp with ANC are always less than stellar SQ compared to non anc hp.
If it's as good as the sunlight lamps outside. I do not give it any chance.
Well they were claiming that you can get twice the playback in a cloudy day so even if it was exaggerated by like 50%-100% you would still get 1 hour playback with a 1 hour charge on a cloudy day
guys wich headphones laterclips is using....
Game changer right there... Wow
They also reused something else... Apple’s band design
Well they just made a perpetual machine
thats a good invention means the battery will work at night only
Not for me, I listen in the dark.
Fall into the Darkside...
Waiting for the future where phones have solar panels
Willy Do... this dude has higher standards than Lew 😎
What’s there stock name
You should make a video about how sony is NEGLECTING india about ps5 restocks since launch
This is some people's dream
So if you can keep the battery topped off by keeping it near a window will we have to worry about uv rays causing damage to the color of the headphones? Like color fade?
They are shipping end of july.
I need that
Why the hell doesn't every single ebook reader have this? You just leave them on the table and it'll be charged forever
I got some they work well
Are you not inter- impressed!?
Will Doo made of stone
Me livin on a hot country,no thanks i not gonna get heat stroke just charge my headphones
In the beginning on the left something glitched out what the hell was that.
Hmm how about solar wall?
Nice title
Fuq the sun, son.. I want headphones powered by my head bangin' 🤘😎🤘 .. gotta be doable - shake flashlights are a thing sooooo
😂
what if they did something like the mi air charge
I work nightshift in a warehouse soooooo...
Willy Du is fasting 😜
It's cool tech.
Who’s gonna sit under sun listening loud music... wtf came up with stupid idea of solar headphones lmao 😂
1:04 look at the camera
No listening in the dark then?
if u go out..... especially in covid....
Hehehe headphone cooking
WILL is just too guy bruh 😂
zero engineers on staff
Really good
they playin you bruh
My headphones have 2 batteries, one charges while the other is being used. It takes 5 seconds to go from 0% to 100% just by switching the batteries.
It's still charging tho.
Cool video tech talk lol yes
High-tech 🔥 🔥 🔥
This is wireless charging.

Just give it a 2 week battery you can't plug it in every 2 weeks ?
