I ran out of money vs i am running out of battery

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'I ran out of money' is used to indicate that someone has no more money available at the moment, while 'I am running out of battery' is used to express that a device's battery is depleting. The first phrase refers to a lack of money in the past, while the second one describes an ongoing process of losing battery power.
