Abstract
A sea water battery is housed within a container which is open to sea water at the bottom and which has a controllable valve for allowing gas to escape from the top. The opening and closing of the valve are actuated, respectively, by predetermined lower and upper battery voltage limits so as to control the amount of water within the container to thereby regulate the output voltage.
