Abstract:

Lithium-organic electrolyte batteries equal in size and output voltage to the BA-4386 magnesium battery were built and tested. Of the 307 batteries built on this program, 48 units were subjected to environmental and service life tests. With a cyclic load averaging to about 130 mA, service life was over 120 hours at room temperature. Reduction in service life was about 10 at 125F, 30 at -20F and 50 af -40F. About 95 of initial service life was retained after 30 days of stand at 160F. Modified author abstract
