Here the term "battery" ("Batterie") usually refers to a disposable, e.g. Alkaline battery, while rechargeable batteries are called "Akkumulator", or shorter and more common, "Akku". I assume this also applies to some other languages where it may be confusing that in English both disposable and rechargeable cells are simply called "battery".

Thank you, I can remember that I met this word (accu) probably in Karl Marx "Winnetou". I had not undestood then what was its meaning, but certainly it could mean "false friend".
