Abstract

An electric current producing primary electrochemical cell having an aqueous electrolyte, an alkaline earth metal anode, and a cathode capable of intercalating ions of the anode metal. The cell operates at an ambient temperature of about 20.degree. C. to about 100.degree. C. at a pH of about 1 to about 5 and exists in a dry (unactivated) state until needed. Activation is initiated by the addition of the electrolyte.
