Abstract
A battery connector comprises a dielectric housing defining a number of passageways, and a number of terminals received in the corresponding passageways. Each terminal comprises a blade-like mating portion having a lateral edge portion for electrically contacting a corresponding battery coil and a connecting leg outwardly extending from a free end of the lateral edge portion of the mating portion for connecting with a circuit board. The mating portion of each terminal defines a cutout in a corner recessed in the other free end of the lateral edge portion and opposite the connecting leg for extension of a connecting leg of an adjacent terminal when the terminals are connected to a terminal carrier strip.
