ABSTRACT:
A selectable connection battery housing apparatus includes a central wall assembly which defines a battery receiving region. A first housing cap assembly is selectively connectable to and removable from a first end portion of the central wall assembly, and a second housing cap assembly is selectively connectable to and removable from a second end portion of the central wall assembly. Each housing cap assembly includes a first surface which includes a first conductive strip adapted to connect to at least three first ends of three batteries retained in the battery receiving region inside the central wall assembly. The first housing cap assembly includes a second surface opposite to the first surface. The second surface includes a second conductive strip adapted to contact first ends of two of the at least three batteries and includes a third conductive strip adapted to contact a first end of one of the at least three batteries. A bridge conductor is connected between the first conductive strip and the third conductive strip of the each housing cap assembly. In one orientation of the housing cap assemblies, the batteries are arranged in parallel. In another orientation of the housing cap assemblies, the batteries are arranged in series.
