Their retainers are made of nickel-plated phosphor bronze and feature dual pressure contacts that exhibit low electrical resistance and keep a tight connection with the cell. The battery is replaceable without tools or instructions due to an intuitive design. Other features include a lightweight plastic body with a feature for reverse polarity protection.
