Abstract

A battery housing formed of at least two sections. Two means of terminating the housing are associated with the housing. One means includes a terminal member and a conductive element. The element is substantially the same length as the housing. The second means includes a contact plate attached to the top cell in the housing. An aperture is provided through the housing and terminal member to permit a connector to reach the contact plate. The housing includes an integrally formed conduit which electrically insulates the conductive element.
