A miniature galvanic cell employing a cell housing comprising an indented cup, such as a beaded cup, and can wherein the indented area is disposed at the vicinity of the open end of the cup so that effectively the majority of the cross-section thickness of the vertical portion of the cell is attributed to the thickness of the wall of the cup so that maximum internal volume of the cell is reserved for the active components. A process for producing the novel housing is also disclosed.
