Abstract

A battery cabinet with a plurality of spaced apart shelves of equal width and depth. Each shelf supports a removable battery module. In turn, each module has a fixed adapter that holds batteries as a battery bank where the module and adapter occupy most of the space between shelves. Battery cells are vertically or horizontally aligned with terminals joined to comb-shaped straps with blades joined to battery terminals. The space between blades allows for thermal expansion without wear on terminals.
