That's not in the cable

Well, Sherlock, good catch! That's an affing wireless charging system. /S

The 90 % efficiency claimed in the OP - is the claimed TOTAL efficiency of the PRODUCT by Porsche (wireless charging station). Of course "it's not in the cable" (rofl), it's in ALL the electric components of the system - which is OVERALL less efficient than a similar (as in function and provided power) charging station.

Similar, but noticably POORER in efficiency (~ it has 10% more losses than a similar wired charging solution). As even the Porsche marketing claims.

If you still fail to get it - then you might want to follow your own unsolicited advice:

Have a web search.

I can rewrite the whole press release by Porsche for you, but i can not understand it for you.

    If you fail to understand what's been discussed and compared to (i.e., wireless vs wired charging)

    and yet keep your arrogant stance towards others (in the now deleted comment literally you_were yelling at someone to shut their mouth look this stuff up before starting to write about it

    or another arrogant "have a web search" thrown randomly at me),

    then why would you act surprised at insults as a response to your regular toxic behaviour?!

    Mate, focus (and would you please avoid shoving advice and links when not openly asked?!): 90 percent efficiency claim is directly in the OP.

    The number can even be confirmed at the press release by Porsche (which boldly claims charging efficiency to be "over 90 percent").

    Focus and keep the number in your mind (the number found BOTH in the OP and confirmed at the Porsce's press release) while trying to explain where the losses do take place.

    I totally understand, that losses do happen when the electricity is converted first to DC and then back to high freq.AC and during the inductive charging itself.

    This is expected and is a convenience tax of sorts (getting rid of cables and plugs) and yet, it's less efficient than plugging directly. Once again, only 90℅ efficient.

    I don't have the crayons to explain it to you any simpler 8)

    The article mentions "about 90%" of efficiency (i understand it as additional losses when compared to wired charging).

    I'd say that's quite bad, and can not be easily disregarded.

    Ekhm. Do you know exactly how [rear earth] minerals are extracted (and how this industry became dominant in China over the rest of the world)? Other industries (with respective wages and employees' rights)?

    Just let's be clear and specific about (methods of) oppression (if you insist on using this term exactly). The word is overused imo to drive specific agenda nowadays, unfortunately.

    You've just claimed that it's bullshit that palestinians and iranians are being killed by their local oppressive regimes (also bullshit?! Omg). Not a single doubt about these facts (i.e., information being checked and confirmed by trustworthy recognised sources) - but only swearing back? Is that really how you respond?!

    That's how i know you don't really care about the lives of palestinians nor iranians. I'm not interested in your agenda.
