Bialetti Moka Stove Top Coffee Makers /Lithium Batteries

[sanookd]

I’m contemplating purchasing a Bialetti Moka stove top coffee maker, either 4 or 6 cup.
I thought these were for stove top usage but I’m noticing some of the machines list wattage and that lithium battery is required.
Can someone please enlighten me why such a simple device which basically has 3 parts and sits on a flame could require a battery? Can you use it without battery if one is really required or is it an integral part of the device?
I can’t find anything online so I though one of you guys who are familiar with Bilatti merchandise could clarify that for me.
Thanks

I recently looked at Bialetti moka products and ended up buying an older Bialetti Kitty as I wanted one which was produced in Italy before manufacturing was moved to the far East. Looking on Amazon I can see wattage listed against some Bialetti moka pots which is confusing and I suspect is a listing error. I do not believe any contain a battery but I could be wrong. Here is what I bought and I am really liking it.
