	You cannot generate electricity in the [[Outlands]] or Outer Planes by thinking of ways to spin a magnet inside of a wire coil. Which is WHY it doesn't get adapted widely. You can make alchemical batteries, and you can convert spells, but MoTrak's mass energy comes from... get this... power plants. As in, trees which grow only in Arcadia. Batteries for lamps are relatively easy to make, but converting electricity into mechanical energy is more difficult than normal, requiring something like a conversion to heat to boil steam to push a turbine rather than a coil and magnet system.
