| Why batteries are in demand |
| Batteries are used to power a number of important portable devices, in particular, flashlights and radios. The ability to carry energized equipment when traveling has distinct advantages in mobility. Whether you are powering tools, recon equipment such as cameras, or need compact trade items, batteries are a winner. In addition to the practical applications of a good set of batteries, there are a number of other uses for entertainment and even electrically powered heating devices. Batteries are small and versatile, and worth their weight in gold when you have a battery powered device you wish to operate. |
| Types of batteries |
| Batteries come in many different sizes and types. Smaller batteries for long life electronics such as watches, standard batteries for portable devices, rechargeable batteries and heavy deep cycle batteries which can be used to store solar energy device output. Each type of battery has a specific role and function. Emergency batteries are a good idea to have on hand for any situation where power is not a known commodity In addition to the sizes of batteries, there are other considerations. Disposable and rechargeable batteries have different uses. Often disposables have longer charges and shelf life, but a rechargeable battery can be used multiple times if you have a method of powering the charging system. |
