Abstract
A storage battery comprises a first branch and a second branch, each of which has a first cell and a second cell, the first and second cells being connected in series, and a first switch for connecting the first cell from the first branch and the first cell from the second branch in parallel and connecting the second cell from the first branch and the second cell from the second branch in parallel. The first switch has a cutoff threshold selected to conduct current when one of the cells forms an open circuit.
