Battery Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
The word battery has a number of senses, most of which are discussed in Wikipedia articles cited below.(The origin of "battery" lies in words that mean "to beat", and a cluster of senses related directly to that. Another cluster of senses began as metaphors to the assembly of multiple artillery pieces into "batteries" that jointly beat a target, and thus include various other entities working in concert. That "beat goes on", so to speak, with single electrical cells being called batteries, just as assemblies of electrical cells working in concert are, and with a product that wants to evoke the recharging of batteries making "Battery" its trademark.)
