Patent attributes
An electrical energy storage device comprises a housing having a first end, a second end, a first side, and a second side; a first electrode disposed in the housing adjacent the first side; a second electrode disposed in the housing adjacent the second side; and an electrolyte mixture disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, the electrolyte mixture containing a plurality of ions. In an implementation, a channel disposed in the housing permits ions to flow adjacent to the first end and a barrier in the housing prevents ions from flowing adjacent to the second end. In another implementation, some of the ions are magnetic. In a further implementation, some of the ions have a greater density than other ions. Charging of the electrical energy storage device is enhanced by applying a magnetic field to the electrical energy storage device or rotating the device.
