Electronic device to be directly charged by a charging device with a protection mechanism

A new battery cell structure uses a reduced stack pressure force to be used and applied over a much smaller area of the cells by using the sides of the cell instead of the top and bottom of the cell. To reduce the amount of force required to compress a cell, an edge-wise construction can be used instead of the sheet construction. Instead of stack pressure having to be applied to the top and bottom of the cell, it is now applied across the edges. An edge-on design is used to form strips, which allows for flat sides of a battery body.
