Abstract
Implementations described and claimed herein provide a battery unit having a first plurality of cells oriented in a first direction and a second plurality of cells oriented in a second direction. The first plurality of cells have a corresponding first plurality of terminals with a first polarity, and the second plurality of cells have a corresponding second plurality of terminals having a second polarity that is an opposite polarity of the first polarity. A conducting surface electrically connects the first and second pluralities of terminals and has a plurality of fuses, each fuse associated with one of the second plurality of terminals. Each fuse has an elongated perforation defining an enclosed surface having a resistive aperture. In general, each resistive aperture is oriented relative to resistive apertures of at least one adjacent fuse such that a substantially even current path is provided to each of the second plurality of terminals.
