Guess what, San Francisco iPhone users? You may not induce to worry about holding your phone damage whatsoever thirster.

(I kid!)

What's the future hold for the engineering science? Charmtech Enterprises is working on grading the technology up to create full cell nodes painted on the side of the wall that actually power themselves. Pretty in love stuff.
