A primary lithium cell having an anode comprising lithium and a cathode comprising electrochemically active material selected from copper vanadates having the formula CuV<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>6 </SUB>or Cu<SUB>2</SUB>V<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>7 </SUB>or mixtures thereof. The cathode can include a manganese dioxide in admixture with said copper vanadates. The cell exhibits higher capacity and energy output than conventional lithium cells having an anode comprising lithium and cathode comprising manganese dioxide. |
