Abstract
A Multicell seawater battery is provided with a top venting means. The venting means comprises a series of passages each located above and communicating with a particular cell. The several passages are connected by ports alternately at one end and at the other end of the cells to form a zig-zag conduit at the top of the battery. A similar passage may be located at the bottom of the battery. The improved porting reduces electrical losses to ground and also reduces the background noise of the battery.
