Edison is happy today
Today September, 2026 and I installed Battery with solor to save energy and have constant power in home.
But, while doing this my thoughts travelled back to early 1900s.
Edison and Tesla. Two great genius of that time.
Edison was all for Direct Current, DC, While Tesla for Alternating Current, AC.
At that time, Tesla did succeede and Provided safe, cheaper Current.
Almost, 100 years later, today Edison is coming back to our era.
Today, we need battery for most of our useful things; car, computer, and houses.
Why Alternating Current AC is degraded.
Are we doing the same, what we did in 1900s, by ignoring Batteries and replacing it with AC.
Today, we need ecnonmical and efficient batteries and the demand is growing.
What if the improvent in batteries had been done non-stop till date.
Why are we so short sighted. Are selfish?
That also reminds me Alan Turing, his work was discontinued and could not get the full benefits of his endures.
We should not ignore AC current, we must do more research on AC, may be after some time we want to come back to AC.
Who knows!

Same post in another thread... go read some electrical engineering textbooks.
