I'm looking to type the "EE" character, the one that means "* 10^{x}" — I'm trying to represent what might be typed on a Ti-84 calculator….

Nothing special is needed here; standard LaTeX provides \textvisiblespace:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
An explicit space: a\textvisiblespace b
\end{document}
A simple variation of the original definition:
\DeclareTextCommandDefault{\textvisiblespace}{%
\mbox{\kern.06em\vrule \@height.3ex}%
\vbox{\hrule \@width.3em}%
\hbox{\vrule \@height.3ex}}
allows to control the width using an optional argument:
\documentclass{article}
\newcommand\Vtextvisiblespace[1][.3em]{%
\mbox{\kern.06em\vrule height.3ex}%
\vbox{\hrule width#1}%
\hbox{\vrule height.3ex}}
\begin{document}
An explicit space: a\textvisiblespace b
An explicit space: a\Vtextvisiblespace b
An explicit 1em space: a\Vtextvisiblespace[1em]b
An explicit 1cm space: a\Vtextvisiblespace[1cm]b
\end{document}
In luatex, there is unicode library included. It acts as replacement for string library, so to print some unicode code point, you can use the char function:
function unicode2utf(c)
-- As parameter pass hexadecimal unicode code point
return unicode.utf8.char(tonumber(c,16))
end
print(unicode2utf("038F"))
This will print the omega symbol, as invisible space isn't best character to test :)

I’ve never seen it written as “EE” but how about something like this?
Then you can write something like the following:
