leadless

Without a cord

Leadless describes something designed or manufactured without lead, typically for safety or environmental reasons.

Most commonly applied to electronics: leadless chip carriers, leadless solder.

In ammunition, leadless bullets reduce toxicity at indoor ranges.

The word also appears in medical contexts for cardiac pacemakers implanted without traditional wire leads.
