As I said, you do need to be sure that your clock was designed to work
with a lithium ion cell as they can burst into flames if incorrectly
charged. If you do try it, make sure you get cells with built in
protection modules and don't blame me if your house burns down.


Is it a rechargeable battery or just a lithium (long life) cell
designed(?) to run the clock for 10 years, supplemented by the solar cell
only when there is enough light? If it is the latter then there should be
no problem with recharging.

It's nmarked (so can't tell if it's rechargeable or not). The cell in your
link may do the job.
