The disclosed technology relates to battery pack that includes a first prismatic cell having a first surface, and a second prismatic cell having a second surface, wherein the first prismatic cell and the second prismatic cell are electrically coupled and arranged such that the first surface and the second surface form an L-shaped pack surface. In some aspects, the battery pack includes an adhesive that is disposed on the pack surface away from a junction between the first surface and the second surface. A battery-powered electronic device and method of manufacture are also provided.

Battery mounting using a heat treated adhesive

Batteries according to embodiments of the present technology may include a battery cell having a longitudinal body section and a lateral body section extending from and normal to the longitudinal body section. An intersection of the longitudinal body section and the lateral body section may define an interior corner. The battery may also include a pouch extending about the battery cell. The pouch may define a seal where a first section of the pouch is sealed to a second section of the pouch externally to the battery cell about a plurality of sides of the battery cell including at the interior corner. The seal may be folded against the pouch and coupled with the pouch along multiple sides of the battery cell.
