If you look at a DC wave on an oscilloscope, it’s flat – there’s no pulsing. If you look at an AC wave on on the same device, you’re gonna see Sin waves. In order for AC to charge DC, the sin wave needs to be rectified Into a DC wave. The conversion from AC to DC reduces efficiency and creates excess heat.
