Abstract

A battery connector has an insulative housing and a plurality of terminals. The insulative housing has a lateral segment and an upright segment. The lateral segment has a plurality of through holes. The upright segment has a plurality of open slots. The terminals are mounted on the insulative housing and each terminal has a circular cross section, a mounting section, a resilient section and a contacting section. The mounting section is mounted in one through hole. The contacting section is mounted on one open slot. The terminals made by a bending process increases the production rate and lowers the manufacturing cost of the battery connector.
