Wouldn't this just decrease the reception for rf devices? Isn't it just stealing power from the system to power other devices?

No more than any random objects.
Think of it like a solar panel. Yes, it blocks light from things behind it, but it doesn't suck light from nearby.

That's interesting! I thought that if you for example have a 50w RF transmitter, taking 40w from it would make it act as a 10w one for the other devices around it.
Thx for the explanation :3
