I wanted to share this opinion on Hackaday about a topic that is the usefulness of a something that has become ubiquitous relatively fast.

This techonolgyy has a lot of potential, what do you think?

    Yeah, but they would be simpler but you would instead have to put powerful DC-DC converters in pretty much everything.

    It sounds like a solution to a problem which isn’t a big deal. In theory it might be nice but it works fine as it is. We know very well how home AC grids work and charging that would be a mess.

      powerful DC-DC

      No, are you not aware how these work?

      A step down DC-DC is nothing compared to a transformer rectifier or PD electronics with communication with a USB-C.

        Maybe, DC wiring at home will never happen though (except in the form of POE).
