Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a battery can be recharged indefinitely?

No. A reference source states outright that secondary batteries are not indefinitely rechargeable because of material dissipation, electrolyte loss and corrosion. Other sources note rechargeable batteries last only a few years or are tested for a limited number of cycles, while one textbook says indefinite recharging holds only in theory for lead storage batteries.
