Direct current doesn't not produce harmful EM waves.
>>107888624Always has been
>>107888624>is betterhow is it better you stupid indiango send DC through a 20 mile wire see what you get
>>107888773HVDC has less losses than AC transmission lines
>>107888759>em waves>harmful
history has demonstrated endlessly that humanity is hostile towards merit, and will more than likely pick a worse standard and refuse to let go of it.And then 50-100 years later we'll "rediscover" the "lost" choice like it's brand new tech.
>>107888773Ahem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_direct_current
>>107888856Still need ac for motors as dc ones are kinda shit and most of your production is ac anyway for the same reasonUnless you are wanting to share electricity with a net that isnt in sync with yours going to dc seems kinda pointless
>>107888624You need to have the same IQ as average /g/ user to make so utterly retarded statement.
Is this bait? I'm serious, is OP retarded?
