Abstract
A battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy. A battery is a collection of one or more electrochemical cells connected in series.
A rechargeable battery contains an electrochemical reaction that is reversible by supplying electricity to the battery. The battery can be recharged and is used multiple times. Rechargeable batteries self-discharge at a faster rate than primary batteries. Common types of rechargeable batteries are nickel-cadmium (NiCd), lead acid, and nickel metal hydride (NiMH). Medical equipment often uses lithium-ion batteries
