I think they only take milliseconds to charge up. In fact if I remember
rightly an ideal source of power was found to be a large lightning strike!
The only problem is knowing just when and where lightning is going to
strike. However in the case I recall the lightning struck a town hall
clock, such that the clock stopped the instant it was struck. Then the
inventor of the flux capacitor just had to go back in time to the
appropriate date, rig up a lightning conductor from the top of the clock
to his flux capacitor, and wait for the time to tick around!
