Abstract: The disclosure describes a battery connector that includes a bendable axis configured to enable a first portion of the battery connector to be electrically connected to a corresponding connector prior to connecting a second portion. A flexible printed circuit may connect the first portion to the second portion and the bendable axis may be located along the flexible printed circuit. A hinge may connect the first portion to the second portion and enable the first portion to bend with respect to the second portion. A flexible printed circuit connected to the battery connector may enable the battery connector to wrap around an edge of a printed circuit board so that the first portion of the battery connector is connected to a first side of the printed circuit board and the second portion of the battery connector is connected to a second side of the printed circuit board.
