1. A method of extracting power from a power delivery surface comprised of a plurality of rectangular, parallel contact strips, wherein adjacent contact strips are separated from each other by a non-conductive gap and energized with opposite polarities, comprising the acts of:

  • arranging at least three electrically conductive contacts, which have contact surfaces smaller than the non-conductive gap, into a linear contact array;

    placing the linear contact array on the power delivery surface in a manner that at least one of the contacts touches a contact strip of one polarity and at least one other of the contacts touches a contact strip of opposite polarity; and

    conducting electricity from the contact strips, through the contacts that touch the contact strips, to an electronic circuit that provides a load.
