In one aspect of the present invention, a sterilization system includes a feature for recharging a rechargeable member, such as a battery, battery pack or battery powered device. The system includes a closeable container defining an interior compartment and a gas discharge generator associated with and disposed in fluid communication with the container for generating a weakly ionized gas which generates an active (biocidal) species into the interior compartment. The system also includes first and second holders disposed in the interior compartment for holding the rechargeable member. The first and second holders have associated conductors for contacting and providing an electrical connection to first and second electrical terminals that are associated with the rechargeable member to permit recharging thereof.
