Redox Cell

The redox (reduction–oxidation) cell is a reversible cell in which electrochemical components are dissolved in the electrolyte. Redox flow batteries are rechargeable.


Typically they are able to be deeply discharged and recharged to full without ill effect on the lifetime of the battery or its capacity. Also they can be left indefinitely in a charged state, making them ideal with stand by power situations.
