1. A method transferring power from a transmit resonator to a receive resonator, the method comprising:
extracting power, via receive capacitive electrodes and a receive inductor of a receive resonator, from an electric field generated by a first pair of transmit capacitive electrodes and a transmit inductor of a transmit resonator;
moving the receive resonator relative to the first pair of transmit capacitive electrodes; and
extracting power, via the receive capacitive electrodes and the receive inductor, from an electric field generated by a second pair of transmit capacitive electrodes and the transmit inductor of the transmit resonator.
