An electric equipment has a battery and an electric condenser that has an
internal resistance lower than that of the battery and accumulates
therein an electric power of the battery. A charge control circuit
controls a charge current originating from the electric power of the
battery and flowing from the battery to the electric condenser. The
charge control circuit controls the charge current in accordance with a
self-discharge rate of the battery. A load is driven with the electric
power accumulated in the electric condenser.
