dry cell batteries
Flashlight energy source
Dry cell batteries are portable power sources in which the electrolyte is a paste rather than a liquid, preventing spillage.

The term distinguishes them from wet cell batteries like car batteries, which contain liquid acid: The flashlight takes two dry cell batteries.
