2. Rechargeable battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_battery

   The energy used to charge rechargeable batteries usually comes from a battery charger using AC mains electricity, although some are equipped to use a vehicle's 12-volt DC power outlet. The voltage of the source must be higher than that of the battery to force current to flow into it, but not too much higher or the battery may be damaged.

3. 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 and current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the battery being charged.

4. Rechargeable alkaline battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_alkaline_battery

   The first generation rechargeable alkaline batteries were introduced by Union Carbide and Mallory in the early 1970s. [3] [5] Several patents were introduced after Union Carbide's product discontinuation and eventually, in 1986, Battery Technologies Inc of Canada was founded to commercially develop a 2nd generation product based on those patents, under the trademark "RAM".

5. AC adapter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_adapter

   A six-way connector on a "universal" DC power supply, consisting of a four-way X connector and two separate individual connectors (one is the nine-volt battery connector). The X-connector here provides 3.5 and 2.5 mm phone plugs and two sizes of coaxial power connector Universal laptop power supply with adjustable voltage between 12 and 24 volts

6. Lithium-ion battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery

   A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.

7. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

   A large data-center-scale UPS being installed by electricians. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or uninterruptible power source is a type of continual power system that provides automated backup electric power to a load when the input power source or mains power fails.

8. Alkaline battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_battery

   The disposable battery market grows at a rate of 5.5% every year. [25] In the past, used batteries ended up at landfill sites, but in 2004, disposal of alkaline batteries at landfill sites was forbidden by an EU regulation. [26] In 2006, the EU committed to recycling 45% of all batteries by 2016. [27]

9. Portable media player - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_media_player

   Most DAPs are powered by rechargeable batteries, some of which are not user-replaceable. They have a 3.5 mm stereo jack; music can be listened to with earbuds or headphones, or played via an external amplifier and speakers. Some devices also contain internal speakers, through which music can be listened to, although these built-in speakers are ...
