Abstract
Multicell system and method for making a multicell system. Systems include relatively thin (less than about 50 mil) electrochemical cells layered upon one another to minimize volume and weight. Cells systems are formed with cells that are layered such that first charge sides of each cell are coupled to first charge sides of other cells, and such that second charge sides of each cell are coupled to second charge sides of other cells. Cells and/or cell systems is connected to other cells and/or cell systems to form battery systems by layering cells such that a first charge side of a cell are coupled to second charge side of another cell. In this manner the number of electrically insulating separators is reduced, thereby also reducing weight and volume of resulting systems.
