what is meant by plant (chemical) battery limits ? specifically inside and outside battery limits ?

Not sure what you mean, are you talking about using 2 different metals and generating electricity from a potato?

I agree with the above answer. But I think you will find that freezing damages batteries. It is the refrigerator that extends life. But it does not increase the amount of energy in the battery. It only extends shelf life. That is because all batteries slowly self discharge while sitting on the shelf, so that after a few years, even though you never used them, they are dead. The cooler the temperature the slower they self discharge.

Simple!\n\nJust a battery, resister, and the diode\n\nThe resister is determined by the size of the battery and the maximum allowable load on the diode. You have to have the diode specs to determine this.

I think it's more letting the battery rest that does the trick.  Some people think, that because the reaction inside a battery causes it to heat up, cooling off the battery will give it more life. The cool air may contribute to helping the active agents inside a battery settle, like this excerpt from a similar question on howstuffworks.com:\n\n"To understand why this happens, it is helpful to understand what's going on inside the battery. Let's take the simplest zinc/carbon battery as an example. If you take a zinc rod and a carbon rod, connect them together with a wire, and then immerse the two rods in liquid sulfuric acid, you create a battery. Electrons will flow through the wire from the zinc rod to the carbon rod. Hydrogen gas builds up on the carbon rod, and over a fairly short period of time coats the majority of the carbon rod's surface. The layer of hydrogen gas coating the rod blocks the reaction occurring in the cell and the battery begins to look "dead". If you let the battery rest for awhile, the hydrogen gas dissipates and the battery "comes back to life". \n\nIn any battery, be it an alkaline battery found in a flashlight or a lead acid battery in a car, the same sort of thing can happen. Reaction products build up around the two poles of the battery and slow down the reaction. By letting the battery rest, you give the reaction products a chance to dissipate. The higher the drain on the battery, the faster the products build up, so batteries under high drain appear to recover more. "

The non rechargeable batteries the chemical reaction is not reversible. U are lucky that it didn't blow up.

They prevent pollution from oil and other fossil fuels, and thus help reduce CO2. \nBut they also pose the problem of radioactive waste that we have to get rid of properly. I don't think that there is any radiation outside the plant, unless it explodes, which is very unlikely, but possible. In that case a lot of land around it will be uninhabitable for like 500 years or so (I am guessing according to the half life or Uranium). I am NOT making this up it happened in Russian many years ago. Can't remember the date or place but it did and wasn't good.

I once read about a device with which reconditioning may be achieved 90% of the time on some types of batteries by applying a very brief, high voltage pulse (kinda like a camera's flash system) across the terminals of individual rechargeable cells.  I tried an improvised version of it with NiCD and sealed lead batteries, and it seemed to work most of the time.  I couldn't find plans for the device when I searched just now, though, so I can't really tell you more than that.  Unless you're knowledgeable in the field of electronics, I suggest you just get another battery because the method of recycling I just described may be dangerous.

I believe most CMOS batteries are 2032 batteries.  You should be able to find them anywhere and they aren't really machine specific.  I'm not sure about laptops though.

Imagine that a battery is the equivalent of putting up a rock up one step in a stair, as the potential increases.  With batteries in series, you go one step, then another, then a 3rd, so in the end you have your rock 3 steps higher.\nNow with the batteries in parallel, you take one rock and take it one step up, then you take ANOTHER rock and put it one step up, and a 3rd; so you have 3 rock one step up, instead of one rock 3 steps up.\nThe amount of work is the same in both cases, but something was traded: in the case of electricity, voltage is traded for potential intensity (amperage).

With electronics, they're typically built for a specific voltage.  Always stick with the same voltage rating.\n\nThe mA-hr rating refers to how long the battery will last.  It's the product of the current (how much power the battery is providing) and the total time at that current.  For example, a 250 mAh battery will last for one hour when providing 250 mA.  It will last 0.5 hrs when providing 500 mA.\n\nThe bigger the number, the longer it will last.

Rechargeable battery can sink in the current whenever its voltage is lesser than the input voltage and up to its maximum capacity. This process is called charging. \n\nIn case of non rechargeable battery the capacity of the battery will be zero. So the battery will oppose the flow of current. Whenever this opposition is quite strong or very fast, there will be force from both directions. Due to this force, the battery will explode.\n\nThe same phenonmenon can take place even with rechargeable battery which is already full and if it is overcharged too quickly (that means without using any series resistor or overcharge cut off sensor in the circuit).

this depends on the plant...different plants have VERY different requirements!

It can have an effect on your battery if you are using it

I did an experiment with this in graduate school.  When a plant has limited to no light, it invests all of its energy and growth into finding a light source.  In my experiment, the plant grew very tall and had very few leaves (since it could not go through photosynthesis anyway, why bother).  It was a very interested experiment and proved that even plant have priorities.
