Abstract
A multi-cell battery pack includes adjacent thin-film battery cells electrically coupled to one another with a conductive battery cell connection tab. The conductive battery cell connection tab is folded at a deflection point separating a first aperture in a first portion from a second aperture in a second portion. The first aperture and the second aperture are aligned with one another along an axis while the first portion and the second portion are positioned to rest adjacent to opposite surfaces of a first thin-film battery cell. In this position, the first portion and the second portion electrically couple a first thin-film battery cell to a second thin-film battery cell in a same battery cell stack.
