Ehh, the word sounds odd but works. Batteries may be invented in some weird ways as of recent. That’s just a part of the path towards inventing a good solution: not all ideas are going to be the best.
As for how weird? Whatever, as long as they work

You didn’t say which batteries were not allowed.
Its ridiculous to think that batteries are banned at all.
