Let's see now. In order to utilize these theories we will first have to solve the problem of FTL travel. And then, to "charge" the black hole we'll have to come up with a massive amount of charged particles. Wait a minute. Charged particles? Doesn't that mean that you already have a battery? I'm all for thought experiments, but this one seems like one colossal waste of time.
