2. Battery charger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_charger

   A battery charger, recharger, or simply charger, [1] [2] is a device that stores energy in an electric battery by running current through it. The charging protocol—how much voltage , amperes, current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the battery being charged.

3. Trickle charging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trickle_charging

   Trickle charging is the process of charging a fully charged battery at a rate equal to its self-discharge rate, enabling the battery to remain at its fully charged level. This state occurs almost exclusively when the battery is not loaded, as trickle charging will not keep a battery charged if current is being drawn by a load.

4. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

   While the engine is running most of the power is provided by the alternator, which includes a voltage regulator to keep the output between 13.5 and 14.5 V. [4] Modern SLI batteries are lead-acid type, using six series-connected cells to provide a nominal 12-volt system (in most passenger vehicles and light trucks), or twelve cells for a 24-volt ...

5. Automobile auxiliary power outlet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_auxiliary_power...

   In Europe, 12 volt plugs and sockets are not specially regulated and do not require approvals for the CE mark. [citation needed] The male plug is sometimes used to feed power into a vehicle to recharge its battery because it usually has no regulatory circuitry between the outlet and the car battery. For instance, portable solar battery ...

6. Electric battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_battery

   An electric battery is a source of electric power consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external connections [1] for powering electrical devices. When a battery is supplying power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode. [2] The terminal marked negative is the source of electrons.

7. AC adapter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_adapter

   A battery eliminator is an adapter intended to allow a device intended for battery operation, such as a radio, to be operated from an AC outlet. [10] All radios, except crystal sets, used inconvenient and messy vacuum tube batteries until the mid- to late-1920s. Battery eliminators that plugged into light sockets became very popular. [11]
