Ionised liquid typically used in batteries (11)

I believe the answer is:

electrolyte

(Other definitions for electrolyte that I've seen before include "Liquid or gel in a battery" , "Liquid or gel containing ions - EEC telly rot (anag)" , "conductor" , "Fluid in a battery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
