часовник на батерии

Alexander Bain designed the first battery clock shortly before 1838. Today the term is applied to portable electric clocks which depend on a dry cell or battery for its electrical power. The older type of battery clocks employed a large bell cell and would run for long periods: the Eureka clock ran for 1,000 days, the Bulle clock for 800 days; whereas a modern battery clock using a small cell will run for approximately one year.
