1. A battery cell interconnect system, comprising:

  • a conductive interconnect having a first termination end and second termination end, the first termination end offset from the second termination end and separated therefrom by an intermediate portion, a pair of spaced threaded rods disposed on each of the first termination end and the second termination end, and an insulating layer disposed on an outer surface of the conductive interconnect over the intermediate portion;

    a pair of V-shaped conductive terminal clamps, each terminal clamp having a pair of intersecting legs, each having a contact surface thereon, and a pair of spaced bores disposed at an intersection of the legs, each V-shaped terminal clamp operative for disposition on respective ones of the spaced rods through respective ones of the spaced bores; and

    a plurality of threaded nuts operative for disposition on each of the threaded rods, wherein the terminal clamps are operative for clamping a plurality of battery cell electrodes by pressing engagement of the contact surfaces against the outer surface of the conductive interconnect.
