Mint Energy Batteries: Shake to Charge

Mint Energy has developed an extremely useful concept design, that could help spell the end of dead batteries.

Half of the object is filled with a rechargeable Ni-nH battery, and the other half contains a magnet based charger, that you simply shake to charge.
