So I've been thinking about new ideas to put in my maps, and then it occurred to me: why not make some sort of energy source (energy cell/battery) that could be plugged into a device (BTS of course) to restore power to a test chamber? What do you all think about this?

Try HMW's manic mechanic, it uses plugs to power stuff.
Or some hl2 maps

Well that's good to know. I might use that in later levels. I may post a few pictures later using the battery idea.

In blue Portals there is battery cube, where you take the light beam to cube for short time.

Yes, you can use it. I'm at school now so I don't have the pictures yet, but I can describe it: very small(like a AA Battery), it has a glass top with a red laser effect inside it. It's made entirely out of brushes.
