We have Alessandro Volta to thank!
Today (18th February) would be the birthday of Italian Physicist Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta born in 1745 (died 1827)
It was Volta in 1799 who invented the first battery - proving for the first time that electricity could be generated chemically. He was much acclaimed throughout his life, and became chair of experimental physics at the University of Pavia for nearly 40 years and was a great friend of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.
In his honour, the unit of electric potential is named and is the 'volt'
Through this invention the field of electrochemistry was born, and which ultimately led to the many types of battery we enjoy today that power the multitude of devices we use daily in our lives, notably our mobile phones, tablets, laptops and of course our electronic cigarettes many of which are variable VOLTAge.

Happy Birthday Alessandro.
