Difference between primary cell and secondary cell
In this article we will learn about the difference between primary cell and secondary cell. we will discus in detail that what is basic difference between primary cell and secondary cell.
Difference between primary cell and secondary cell
Primary cell |
Secondary cell |
|
1.
Primary cells are a type of batteries which are not easily recharged after use. Secondary cells are also a type of battery which is easily charge after use. Which means it is rechargeable.
|
It is discarded after a single use, But secondary cells are used over and over again. By recharge of battery.
|
|
2. It is not disposable
|
It is disposable
|
|
3. Primary cells example, boys, toys, radio cell, and watch cells etc. which are use only one time. Simply we say that use and threw.
|
Secondary cells example, automobile field battery, power source battery, power pack etc. which is recharge again and again according to requirement.
|
|
4.
|
When secondary cells have completely discharged then they can be recharged and used again. By pumping electric current through the cell in the opposite direction that it normally flows, for additional use cell can recharge.
|
|
5. Primary cells life-cycle cost is low.
|
Secondary cells life-cycle cost is high than primary cells.
|
|
6. Primary cells initial cost is lower because it is use only one time .
|
Secondary cells initial cost is higher than primary cell. Because it is rechargeable.
|
|
7. Replacement readily available.
|
In this type of cells , Replacements are not available .
|
|
8. It is both type lighter and smaller thus traditionally more suitable for portable application. And longer service per charge and good.
|
Secondary cell is Traditionally less suited for portable applications, although recent advances in Lithium battery technology have led to the development of smaller/lighter secondary batteries.
It main difference between primary cell and secondary cell.
|
|
9. It is not suitable for high load and longer service.
|
secondary cell are suitable for heavy load and longer service
|
hence it is the difference between primary cell and secondary cell. if you will found any incorrect in above please comment below in comment box.
