Abstract:
1. In the combination of an anode can and a cathode can for an electrochemical cell; wherein said cathode can has an open end and opposing closed end with integral side wall therebetween and cathode material within said cathode can; wherein said anode can has an open end and opposing closed end and an integral side wall therebetween and anode material within said anode can; wherein the anode can has an insulator seal material covering a portion of said anode can integral side wall; wherein the cathode can is adapted to be pushed over the anode can with the open end of said anode, can facing the open end of said cathode can, so that the side wall of said cathode can overlaps at least a portion of the side wall of said anode can with said insulator seal material therebetween to form a cell, the improvement comprising: wherein the outside diameter of the anode can (d
