I am inclined to agree with Zev, I don't know of an issur inherent in
electonics itself, but what you're doing with it.

I mean "electronics" in contrast to the higher-power implications had
I written "electricity". House power may inherently raise issues: Is is
boneh to plug in a plug? The sparking of various contacts may be pesiq
reishei delo nicha lei in many cases. Etc... But with battery powered
stuff, or this shirt, these issues do not arise.

Assuming one can buy a garment that doesn't have an assur device, and
is only used to charge a battery that isn't used until after Shabbos.
If the charging is mutar, then the clothing is a keli shemelakhto leheter,
and why would it be muqtzah?

Tir'u baTov!
