Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure is directed to a convertible battery pack having an improved switching circuit. The switching circuit includes a converter element having a plurality of contacts positioned in the converter element such that as the converter element slides within the battery pack the contacts move from a first position to engage a first set of contact pads to a second position to engage a second set of contact pads. The converter element includes a pair of springs for each of the plurality of contacts that force the contacts into engagement with the contact pads but also allow the contacts to adjust for imperfections in the contact pad surface or the manufacturing tolerances of the contact pads or a support board that holds the contact pads.
