All Rechargeable Batteries

Battery chemistries that can be charged again and again, including lithium-ion, lithium iron phosphate, lead-acid, nickel-metal hydride, nickel-cadmium, nickel-iron, nickel-hydrogen, zinc-bromine and zinc-ion cells. A technology belongs here when its cited article calls it a rechargeable battery or a type of lithium-ion battery. It excludes single-use primary cells and flow batteries. Rechargeable batteries store energy as reversible chemical change in the electrodes, and the chemistries here differ in the materials, cost, weight and cycle life. A technology is placed here by the chemistry the cited article describes.
