In 1859, intrigued by the concept of rechargeable batteries, Planté invented the first model of a lead-acid cell battery. An innovative figure in the history of car batteries, his findings introduced new possibilities for portable energy storage.
These and other discoveries spurred further invention, culminating in the design of the first mass production battery by William Cruickshank in 1802. Cruickshank arranged zinc and copper plates in a sealed wooden box and immersed them in an electrolyte of brine.
Gaston Planté (born April 22, 1834, Orthez, France—died May 21, 1889, Paris) was a French physicist who produced the first electric storage battery, or accumulator, in 1859; in improved form, his invention is widely used in automobiles.
Invention. From the mid 18th century on, before there were batteries, experimenters used Leyden jars to store electrical charge. As an early form of capacitor, Leyden jars, unlike electrochemical cells, stored their charge physically and would release it all at once.
Pioneers of the car battery include Gaston Planté, who invented the first lead-acid rechargeable battery; Thomas Edison, who improved upon it with his nickel-iron version; and many others who contributed to its evolution.
Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (/ ˈvoʊltə, ˈvɒltə /, Italian: [alesˈsandro ˈvɔlta]; 18 February 1745 – 5 March 1827) was an Italian physicist and chemist who was a pioneer of electricity and power, [1][2][3] and is credited as the inventor of the electric battery and the discoverer of methane. He invented the voltaic ...
Perhaps the most familiar form of the primary battery is the LeClanche cell invented in about 1860. The early forms were wet cells with zinc as the reducing agent and manganese dioxide as the oxidizer (initially called depolarizer).
