Not quite sure what you mean but, if the UseEffect function is what you want to recharge your battery variable then if you defined the variable outside any function all you have to do is instead of:

  function UseEffect () 
 {
     Debug.LogWarning("Point light.AlterEnergy(batteryPower)");
     var batteryPower : int = 100;
 }

Write:

  function UseEffect () 
 {
     Debug.LogWarning("Point light.AlterEnergy(batteryPower)");
     batteryPower = 100;
 }

Writing var in front of the variable you want to alter its value, doesn't alter it, instead it declares it again, and I don't think it would allow you to declare it if you already declared it.
