We have the , , and tags, should they be merged?

There are a few questions marked as charging that relate to capacitor and inductor charging, but all of the others refer to battery chargers.

It could be a problem for Dodge hackers! – clabacchio Jan 29 at 16:25
Seriously, could "charging" be associated to anything else than batteries? I think they could be merged... – clabacchio Jan 29 at 16:27

@clabacchio charging can be associated with "charging a capacitor" – Kellenjb Jan 29 at 16:38
That's what I was thinking, but I'm not sure anyone will ever ask how to charge a capacitor...I don't know... – clabacchio Jan 29 at 16:49
@clabacchio, there can be some complexity to charging a cap, I think that charging is a useless tag myself, always needing to have capacitor or battery to be useful. – Kortuk♦ Jan 29 at 18:38
@clabacchio The problem is questions like electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/18593/… and electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/14462/… We probably need to manual changing of tags instead of bulk changing all of them. – Kellenjb Jan 29 at 18:53
@Kellenjb If you (not necessarily you specifically, but at least someone from the community) clean up the questions that need manual retagging, the rest can be dealt with in a bulk way (by merging or deleting the tag). – Anna Lear♦ Feb 12 at 3:43
