Dry cells produce potential DC energy by the same sort of chemical action used in storage batteries. Dry cells are called dry because they do not use liquid electrolyte. All of the parts in a dry cell are sealed inside a metal container.
Figure shows you two types of dry cells. The materials and the electrolyte (chemical) are different from wet batteries. However, the cells produce potential energy the same way as the lead acid storage battery.
In the past, dry cells were not recharged when they lost their power. They were usually thrown away and replaced. Now it is possible to get rechargeable dry cell batteries. Rechargeable means they can be charged again.
Dry cells are often used in test equipment, and, of course, in flashlights, mobile telephones, wristwatches, pagers, cameras etc.
