A ratio of a second thickness of the gasket to a first thickness of the gasket is greater than 1.8 and is less than 4.8. The first thickness is a length between an internal surface of the battery case and an outermost edge of the cap assembly, and the second thickness is a length between the internal surface of the battery case and an outermost tip of the crimping part.
