Tentatively speaking, No. I don't think so... The circuitry is designed
for 5 volts, and the capacitance available throughout the device is so
low almost no current would be available either.

(redundancy?) the halving of power happens within inches, and inches,
and inches.

Put your laptop in the 'wave, and set to incinerate for a few
milliseconds and it will no longer work though. Nor will the microwave oven.
