Interesting. I remember, about 60 years ago while going to school on the bus, noticing women on their way to the shop to have their accumulators charged. They were rechargeable batteries in large, rectangular glass jars with carrying handles - must have been heavy, quite like a car battery today but smaller. I think an accumulator could be recharged, but a battery* could not. Strictly speaking, "accumulator" might be thought a better term for what we call a rechargeable "battery", but usage hasn't turned out that way. * "Battery" seems to have come from an army parallel: a battery of guns inspiring a battery of energy-storage cells. -- Rgds Peter
