Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'battery', derived from the Middle French 'baterie' meaning a beating or a series of similar things, with 'charger', originating from the Old French 'chargier' meaning to load. In the late 19th century, with the invention of rechargeable electrical cells, the compound noun emerged to designate a device used to put energy into a secondary cell or rechargeable battery.
