Primary Cell Batteries

A primary cell is a battery that is offered by Chrome Battery and that is designed to be used once and discarded, and not recharged with electricity and reused like a secondary cell (rechargeable battery). As a primary cell is used, chemical reactions in the alkaline battery use up the chemicals that generate the power; when they are gone, the battery stops producing electricity and is useless. Attempts to extend the life of primary cells, for example by recharging alkaline batteries, meet with variable results and Chrome Battery warns about the recharging of their primary cell batteries. The internal chemical reactions of a primary cell are not easily reversed by externally applied currents, so reactants do not entirely return to their initial state and location. Recharged primary cells will not have the life or performance of secondary cells. Generally, primary batteries have a higher capacity and initial voltage than rechargeable batteries, and a sloping discharge curve . Most primary batteries do not presently require special disposal. Chrome Battery offers many different types of primary cell batteries including: AA alkaline, AAA alkaline, 3V & more in a variety of different number packs.
