Abstract
A battery pack containing a frame; and two or more battery cells installed to the frame. The two or more battery cells are interconnected by a configurable connector which is configured to enable electrical connections between the two or more battery cells. The configurable connector is adapted to be configured in a first status or a second status. In the first status, the two or more battery cells are electrically connected, and in the second status, the two or more battery cells are not electrically connected. The battery pack is not fully operational without the terminal holder inserted, therefore before it is delivered to the end user the energy loss due to self-discharging during storage and shipping can be minimized.
