  2. Rechargeable battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_battery

    A rechargeable battery, storage battery, or secondary cell (formally a type of energy accumulator), is a type of electrical battery which can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_zinc_battery

    These cells are found in applications for the military, for example in Mark 37 torpedoes and on Alfa-class submarines. in the 1960s General Motors developed an electric car called Electrovair, which was powered by a zinc-silver battery produced by Eagle-Picher. [5] However, the battery was expensive and lasted only a hundred charge-discharge ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

    A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

    In May 2022, Porsche AG announced plans to produce lithium-silicon battery cells with Group14's technology in Germany in 2024 to help power their new electric vehicles. [17] Group14 plans to use Porsche's funding to accelerate the development of their second U.S. factory to supply a minimum of 600,000 EVs annually. [18]

  8. Battery nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_nomenclature

    Flat cells, used as components of multi-cell batteries, have an F prefix and a series of numbers to identify sizes. Coin cells were assigned size codes in the 5000 range. Secondary cells using systems H and K (nickel-metal hydride and nickel-iron sulfide) have a separate series of size codes, but the cells are dimensionally interchangeable with ...

  9. Silver oxide battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_oxide_battery

    These button cells generally follow the same compact design. The bottom portion of the cell is the cathode, which consists of a graphite infused silver oxide. A plastic membrane separates this from an anode of powdered zinc dissolved in an alkaline electrolyte. An insulating gasket keeps the two contacts apart, facilitating the discharge of the ...
