Solution

Lead Storage Battery.
At anode:
$P b (s) + S O_{4}^{2 -} (a q) \to P b S O_{4} + 2 e^{-}$
At cathode:
$P b O_{2} (s) + 4 H^{+} (a q) + S O_{4}^{2 -} + 2 e^{-} \to P b S O_{4} (s) + 2 H_{2} O (l)$
Net reaction:
$P b (s) + P b O_{2} (s) + 2 H_{2} S O_{4} (a q) \to 2 P b S O_{4} + 2 H_{2} O (l)$
