Abstract
The apparatus has a carrier for accommodating a plurality of series-connected energy cells, which each have a positive terminal and a negative terminal. An electrical contact is provided in the carrier for each terminal, which electrical contacts, when the energy cell is inserted, connect said energy cell to connection points for drawing energy. Each positive terminal and in each case the associated negative terminal are electrically connected to one another via a switch. These switches are designed such that they are in each case interrupted when an energy cell is inserted. The invention then also makes possible current consumption if fewer than the maximum possible number of energy cells are available.
