so while i know what the mod uses as power but i have a question do i get the battery back after the charge is used? because those batteries can be recharged so it being lost would make no sense.

Yes, you can unload the car or storage battery from the tool and recharge it.

I tend to use them a lot. Easier than constantly hunting for batteries.
