rechargeable batteries

Reusable energy cells

Rechargeable batteries are batteries that can be restored to full charge after depletion, unlike disposable batteries that are discarded after a single use.

They power devices from phones to electric vehicles: I need to buy rechargeable batteries for the kids' toys.

Common types include lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride, and lead-acid.
