A DRY CELL is used for storing electricity. We use them in our offorad and race vehicles. In the event of a rollover or crash, the a normal wet cell would leak acid all over you and may cause a fire if heat or spark is applied.
A dry cell will not do this and can be mountwed in any position, even upside down.

A dry cell is a galvanic electrochemical cell with a pasty electrolyte. A wet cell, on the other hand, is a cell with a liquid electrolyte.
Dry cell sizes were first designated by single letters. The system ANSI uses today is more complicated, but many of the letter names survive as the sizes of flashlight batteries, even some that consumers no longer use, such as "F"–inside the common 6-volt lantern battery are four F cells.
Battery capacity is rated in ampere-hours, but manufacturers don't usually provide such an estimate because the amount of current that can be drawn from a dry cell depends on such factors as the weather, the age of the cell, the cut-off voltage, the size of the load, and how quickly the power is withdrawn. If you put new batteries in a flashlight, turn it on and let it run until the batteries expire, you will have received fewer ampere-hours from them than if they were used for an hour a day until exhausted. Nonetheless, an estimate of the capacity in ampere-hours of the various sizes of carbon-zinc cells is: AA, 0.4; C, 1.5; D, 3.4; F, 5.2; G, 6.1. Alkaline-manganese cells have capacities roughly 1.5 to 2.5 times higher.
The chart gives typical maximum recommended current draw in milliamperes. The batteries described here are those most often encountered, such as those used in flashlights. Different types of batteries may be produced in the same cell size. For example, a C cell made for clocks is optimized for a much lower current draw but a much longer life than a C cell made for flashlights.

Well, dry cell as the name specifies is not dry at all. It is just packed so tight that it doesn't leaks but in reality dry cell also leaks. It can be used as source of electricity for low power equipments, eg: clocks, watches etc.

Dry cell is a source of electricity.But the dry cell gives a d.c(direct current) but the other is an alternating current.(a.c).

Tattoos, piercings, baseball caps, and screaming girls: all the right ingredients for today’s rock band. But the guys in Dry Cell and the music they make together are anything but typical. Described by singer Jeff Gutt as being, "edgy, hard music that’s easy to listen to," the songs that comprise their debut album Disconnected are mad but melodic, edgy but engaging. The music is played by virtuosos, but without virtuosos’ penchant for endless "look at me" solos.

if u use the thing daily, no need to remove everytime. but if it is to be kept unused for longer time, better to remove cells cos they tend to leak inside the instrument only....
