ABSTRACT:
A battery-operated lantern has two rows of single-cell batteries disposed end-to-end in its body, the two rows being side-by-side and parallel, and the body has a closure member with an insulated contact plate secured to it for engagement by the central electrode of the adjacent cell in one row and by the base of the adjacent battery in the other row, for connecting the batteries in one row in series with those in the other row. The electrical contacts at the other end of the casing are constituted by respective coil springs which serve also to press the batteries in the two rows towards the contact plate. The closure member has a spring-loaded catch which automatically secures the member as it is moved into a closed position on the body.
