    Yep. You know how hot your phone gets when charging? Or how hot a playstation gets when gaming for hours at a time?

    That’s due to heat-loss generated by the circuits. Superconductors would allow them to run much cooler generating essentially zero heat. Which means they can run more efficiently or faster without the need for larger heatsinks or complicated expensive cooling systems.
