1. An inductive battery system, comprising:

  • a casing;

    a secondary coil system that receives inductive power and provides electrical power;

    charge circuitry coupled to the secondary coil system that receives the electrical power and provides charging power;

    output circuitry that provides external power;

    an internal battery located within the casing and coupled to the charge circuitry and the output circuitry that receives the charging power and provides output power to the output circuitry; and

    a conductive rod connected to a positive contact and a positive battery contact of the internal battery, wherein the conductive rod provides a conductive path from the positive contact to the positive battery contact of the internal battery and comprises a ferrite material that facilitates coupling of the secondary coil system with a magnetic field from a primary coil system.
