Abstract
An integral electrical switch adapter for mechanically and electrically connecting a battery to a switch module without wires or soldered connections. The adapter includes a generally planar base having a first pair of flexible upstanding spaced attachment arms at the sides of the base for detachably securing the adapter to an associated electrical switch speed control module. The base also has a second pair of flexible downwardly extending spaced electrically conducting attachment arms at the sides of the base for electrically and mechanically securing the adapter to leads on an associated battery in detachable relationship therewith. The base also has a pair of upstanding elongated electrical switch bayonnet-type prong connectors on the front of the base and electrically connected, respectively, to the second pair of attachment arms for detachable electrical connection to associated leads on the module, thereby mechanically and electrically connecting the battery to the module.
