ABSTRACT:
An improved battery discharge device is provided having a non-conducting base member including a first solid conducting plate also having a second conducting plate having holes therein with a first insulating member or air space between the first and second conducting plates. Holes are provided in the first insulating plate and the second conducting plate so that pegs can be pushed through the holes to allow contact between the battery terminals and the first solid conducting plate so as to allow a current to flow between the terminals of the battery and thereby discharge the batteries. Also, an illuminator is provided so as to indicate the flow of current from the first solid conducting plate to the second conducting plate. Other embodiments showing various connectors for specialized batteries are also provided.
