Batteries

What is a battery?

A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts that into electrical energy through one or more cells. The chemical reactions inside a battery cause electrons to flow from one electrode to another via an electrolyte. Most consumer batteries have a “positive” and “negative” terminal, called the cathode (positive) and anode (negative). Within the cannabis industry, most batteries are lithium ion, and rechargeable, though some companies use other types. These batteries are generally safe with little risk of harm.
