A Water Activated Battery characterized by 1. A Water Activated Battery characterized bya) At least one anode selected from the group consisting of magnesium, aluminum, zinc and alloys thereof;{'sub': 2', '2, 'claim-text': {'sub': 2.(n-1', '2, 'nMg+Cu(OH))CuX=Mg(OH)+(n−1)MgX+nCu), the cathode further comprising a soluble, ionically conductive material;'}, 'b) A cathode comprising a skeletal frame and comprising at least one basic copper salt comprising Cu(OH)combined with a copper salt (n−1)CuX with (n−1) being the molar ratio between the CuX and the Cu(OH)in the basic copper salt), such that a discharge reaction in saline versus a Mg anode could be written'}c) at least one cavity separating said cathode and said at least one anode; andd) a housing surrounding said at least one anode, cathode and cavity;(e) a lower aperture at the base of the housing for ingress of water and for expelling of heavier than water products of post immersion reaction, and(f) an upper aperture located near top of the housing for venting hydrogen generated by the post immersion reaction, wherein said upper aperture is positioned below the top of housing to create a cavity to provide a void for trapping hydrogen, so that hydrogen is only expelled from the cavity via the upper aperture after a quantity has accumulated, and is expelled in bubbles having a diameter of at least one millimeter.2. The basic copper salt of being selected from the list comprising basic copper sulfate claim 1 , basic copper carbonate claim 1 , basic copper acetate (verdigris) and basic copper chloride.3. The water-activated claim 1 , deferred-action battery of claim 1 , wherein the basic copper salt is compacted and fused to itself and to the skeletal frame claim 1 , to form a heat-fused claim 1 , conductive claim 1 , electrochemically active material.4. The water activated deferred action battery of claim 1 , wherein a portion of a surface of the cathode is formed as open spaces.5. The water-activated claim 1 , ...
