ABSTRACT:
A split battery contact arrangement (10) for a low voltage portable electronic product having a first circuit (18) and second circuit (18) comprises a split positive battery contact having a first positive contact point (20) selectively isolatable from a second positive contact point (17), the first positive contact point being coupled to the first circuit (18) and the second circuit (16) being coupled to the second positive contact point. The arrangement further comprises a back-up energy source (24) coupled to the first positive contact point and a removable battery (12), which when removed selectively isolates the first circuit from the second circuit, thereby preventing the back-up energy source from powering the second circuit. When the removable battery is inserted, it couples the first circuit to the second circuit.
