Battery Knowledge Menu | Products and Services Directory  

A battery  is a device that converts the chemical energy contained in its active materials into electrical energy by means of an electrochemical reaction. While the term "battery" is often used, the basic electrochemical element being referred to is the cell. A battery consists of two or more cells electrically connected in series to form a unit. In common usage, the terms "battery" and "cell" are used interchangeably.
