1. A method for altering the properties of a battery, comprising:

  • providing a battery;

    providing a magnetic field generator, the magnetic field generator comprising a cylindrical chamber; and

    generating a pulsed magnetic field within the cylindrical chamber of the magnetic field generator;

    maintaining the battery within the chamber when the battery is in the magnetic field, while simultaneously running a current through the battery, the current being maintained through the battery until the circuit reaches a steady state;

    wherein the generated pulsed magnetic field has an average field strength ranging from 6 to 40 G;

    wherein the battery demonstrates an improvement in power capacity after being exposed to the pulsed magnetic field.
