An electric battery is a source of electric power consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external connections [ 1] for powering electrical devices. When a battery is supplying power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode. [ 2] The terminal marked negative is the source of electrons that will ...
A mobile phone plugged in to an AC adapter for charging. A battery charger, recharger, or simply charger, [ 1][ 2] is a device that stores energy in an electric battery by running current through it. The charging protocol—how much voltage, current, for how long and what to do when charging is complete—depends on the size and type of the ...
A USB charger that supports QC3.0. Quick Charge ( QC) is a proprietary battery charging protocol developed by Qualcomm, used for managing power delivered over USB, mainly by communicating to the power supply and negotiating a voltage. Quick Charge is supported by devices such as mobile phones which run on Qualcomm system-on-chip (SoCs), and by ...
Jump starting a vehicle. Crocodile clips, also called automotive clips, on a set of jumper cables. A jump start, also called a boost, is a procedure of starting a motor vehicle (most commonly cars or trucks) that has a discharged battery. A temporary connection is made to the battery of another vehicle, or to some other external power source.
Trickle charging. Trickle charging means charging a fully charged battery at a rate equal to its self-discharge rate, thus enabling the battery to remain at its fully charged level; this state occurs almost exclusively when the battery is not loaded, as trickle charging will not keep a battery charged if current is being drawn by a load. [ 1 ...
Agfa Optima Flash Sensor. Agfa Optima Flash Sensor. The Agfa Optima Flash is a fixed-lens 35 mm viewfinder camera manufactured in Germany by Agfa from 1981 to 1983. It belongs to the Agfa Optima series, features the same big red Sensor shutter-release and large viewfinder as any other in the series, with some improvements and a built-in flash .
A battery management system (BMS) is any electronic system that manages a rechargeable battery (cell or battery pack) by facilitating the safe usage and a long life of the battery in practical scenarios while monitoring and estimating its various states (such as SoH, and SoC), [1] calculating secondary data, reporting that data, controlling its environment, authenticating or balancing it.

Inductive charging. The primary coil in the charger induces a current in the secondary coil in the device being charged. Inductive charging (also known as wireless charging or cordless charging) is a type of wireless power transfer. It uses electromagnetic induction to provide electricity to portable devices. Inductive charging is also used in ...
