Soaring must be useless too, as you can only do it in the
daytime. Personally, I just try to gather the distance during those
daylight hours.
Even more useless: For reference, the total home electricity bill
for the last ten years has been US$505.74. I'd conservatively
estimate a quarter of that is for connection to the grid. 95% of
the energy is photovoltaic, sleeping at night like the useless
AS-W27 or any of it's predecessors.
I wanted to do something and went for it. The cost is far below
that of a new car.
Don't just complain, install a cold fusion generator in the garden shed!

We know soaring is useless.
As you obviously didn't get it the first time I'll repeat "We're
talking about powering our technical civilisation not pandering to
the eccentric hobbies of the idle rich."
Soaring and solar power are both in that category.
