Pullen Primary Cell battery

Pullen Primary Cell.

The Pullen primary battery, illustrated herewith, has a low internal resistance and can be used to operate everything electrical that requires a battery either in closed or open circuit. Where a light, powerful and efficient battery is wanted, this cell, it is claimed, will be found unequaled. The cells are made in three sizes, giving on normal discharge rate, three-fourths, one and i^ amperes, respectively, at two volts, the capacities in watt-hours being 40, 80 and 160. The cells can be used in either closed or open circuit, such as for bells, burglar alarms, telephones, electric clocks, carriage lamps, phono-graphs, fan motors, dental engines, gas-engine ignition in automobiles or launches, fire and police signals, railway signals, miniature lamps for Christmas trees and candelabra, X-ray outfits, electro-therapeutic work, etc. These cells can be recharged the same as a storage battery a number of times, the porous cup being positive. The solution of the Pullen cells can be congealed by the addition of a chemical compound Solidium, which makes them better for portable work, without materially changing the efficiency of the cell. The cell is manufactured by the Leon W. Pullen Electric Company of 613 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia. The company also puts out battery fan outfits which run from 40 to 160 hours at 1,200 revolutions a minute on two cells.
