A new type of silver halide solid electrolyte cell consists of a small bead of silver halide with tantalum and silver wires, cathode and anode, respectively. The mechanism of the electrochemical reaction of this cell has been determined. When the cell is exposed to bromine or iodine vapor, it is a promising primary cell for elevated temperatures. With silver iodide as electrolyte, the cell can be recharged several times.
