A Square V cube battery comprising a container filled with a quantity of lithium-ion paste. The container is closed at either end by end caps. A plurality of metal partitions each having an upper and lower surface are disposed through-out the quantity of lithium-ion paste. The plurality of metal partitions spread recharging current across the entire upper and lower surfaces of each and every partition to reduce current pressure, friction and heat, to minimal levels. Each of the plurality of metal partitions holds a quantity of electrons.

A charging device for charging an energy accumulator unit, in particular a battery pack, of a hand-held power tool. The charging device includes a cooling device for cooling the energy accumulator unit, in particular the battery pack, a charger housing, which at least in sections forms an outer housing, and a receptacle unit which may detachably accommodate the energy accumulator unit, and is provided to accommodate the energy accumulator unit in a connected state and/or hold it at the charging device. The cooling device is provided to form an airflow directed onto the energy accumulator unit in such a way that the airflow at least in sections flows around the energy accumulator unit.

Example illustrations are directed to an insulator assembly and methods, e.g., of installing the insulator assembly into a battery pack. An insulator assembly may include an insulator sheet and an insulator sheet standoff coupled to the insulator sheet. The standoff may be configured to allow ventilation associated with the insulator sheet and one or more surfaces of a battery component. Example insulator assemblies may be provided in a battery pack, e.g., for an electric vehicle.

A spacer of a battery module includes a plurality of bars provided extending in a width direction of adjacent battery cells and arranged at an interval from each other, a first fin, and a second fin. The first fin of the battery module takes a shape extending upward from the bar toward one of the battery cells and contact a principal surface of the battery cell. The second fin takes a shape extending downward from the bar toward the other battery cell and contact a principal surface of the other battery cell. A fin length of the first fin and a fin length of the second fin are each smaller than the interval between the bars. The sum of those fin lengths is larger than the interval between the bars.
