How can i get around power limitations due to battery size?
My story has a few androids and some beings that can manipulate electricity with their bio battery electric organs and I want these characters to have the ability to shoot powerful lasers, plasma projectiles etc but I am unsure how they could store that much power to allow them to do repeated attacks.
I am trying to keep things within the realms of current or near future level technology (with a bit of hand wavery) as that is something I can easily research and what I feel I can paint a better picture of but I think I have put myself into a corner by giving myself that limitation.
So I was wondering if there is a way I can get around the amount of power capable of being stored in a portable sized battery that could be put in a human sized body?
If not, what theorised future possibilities what be a good direction to go in to store vast amounts of power in a small form?
