Mercuric oxide batteries, silver oxide batteries, lithium batteries, zinc-air batteries, solar batteries, etc. have been examined for the power-source since appearance of electronic wrist watches. the silver oxide battery has widely been used as the power source of electronic wristwatches today beause of its voltage stability, high energy density, and wide operating tenperature. The reliability of batteries has been attracted special interest, as electronic wristwatches show the tendency to miniaturization, thinness, multi-function, and long-life. This paper reviews the analytieal research of electrolyte leakage and self-discharge that are the most complicated problems.
