Abstract: This study evaluates this assertion to guide future practice by both consumers and industry. The study compares re-chargeable batteries and non-rechargeable battery. The scope of the paper includes the distribution, use and disposal of the batteries and the battery charger. Energy use in wholesale and retail parts of the distribution system are also accounted for. Non rechargeable batteries were invented first, they are known as primary batteries; Rechargeable batteries are referred to as secondary batteries. Non-rechargeable batteries contain chemicals that create a surplus of electrons. Once these chemicals are exhausted, the charge is exhausted, and the battery is dead. A rechargeable battery contains a different set of chemicals that can store excess electrons which can be replenished using an electrical charge.The paper shows that Non rechargeable batteries have a long shelf life, while rechargeable batteries last longer. Non rechargeable batteries are cheaper than rechargeable batteries, but in the long run, rechargeable batteries prove to be profitable.Without batteries one would never have portable clocks that can be used to easily access the time. Although not a compulsory essential, watches have been said to be one of the most important concepts on a small scale business.
