Nearly all electronic devices today are powered by some type of battery — which “is a device that stores chemical energy and makes it available in an electrical form”. Video after the jump.
Batteries consist of electrochemical devices such as one or more galvanic cells, fuel cells or flow cells. The modern development of batteries started with the Voltaic pile developed by the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta in 1800.
