How do rechargeable batteries work and why switch to them?

One BlueTouch USB-C rechargeable battery can handle over 1,000 charging cycles. In comparison, around 50 regular batteries end up in the trash each year in an average household.

Batteries are everywhere – in toys, lamps, alarm clocks, wireless mice, and keyboards. Disposable batteries may seem convenient, but only at first glance. You buy them, use them, throw them away – and sooner or later, you’re stuck again because your TV remote has run out of power. Rechargeable batteries break this cycle once and for all.

A rechargeable battery can be used thousands of times

Traditional disposable batteries are alkaline – the chemical reaction inside works in one direction only. Once the energy is used up, the battery becomes waste.

Rechargeable batteries use NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) or more advanced lithium-ion technology. The chemical reaction is reversible – energy is stored during charging and released during use. This cycle can be repeated hundreds, even thousands of times.

👉 Our BlueTouch USB-C batteries use modern Li-ion technology for stable performance and long lifespan.

You’ll also find classic NiMH rechargeable batteries in our range, designed for standard battery chargers.

BlueTouch batteries don’t need a charger

BlueTouch USB-C batteries take it one step further: each battery has a built-in USB-C port. Just plug in any USB-C cable – at home, in your car, or at the office.

👉 Want to charge multiple batteries at once? Use our 2-in-1 charging cable.
