That's a toy, not a serious piece of long-term-useful kit.Of course, I expect no better from PopMech; that rag's been
known for looney gear for as long as I've been aware of its
existence. Pick up any issue that's over 15 to 20 years old,
and you're just about guaranteed to find that one or more of
the articles covers tech that either was bogus, badly
executed, conceptually flawed, or otherwise laughably wrong
in retrospect...and they lauded it as the wave of the
future. More like the hand-wave of the future has-been, in
my experience.--
