1. A method for installation of a battery cell, the method comprising:
positioning the battery cell and a number of members relative to each other to form a battery cell assembly, wherein a number of grooves is formed by the number of members and a surface of the battery cell; and placing the battery cell assembly into a channel in a housing, wherein the number of members physically separates the battery cell from the housing, and an adhesive in the number of grooves connects the battery cell assembly to the housing; wherein the channel provides electrical isolation to the battery cell; wherein the battery cell has terminals located at a first end; wherein the battery cell assembly comprises a plurality of the battery cells, and separates and electrically insulates the battery cells from the housing, the battery cell assembly comprising at least two separate members attached to each battery cell, each of the at least two separate members extending between the first end of the battery cell and past a second end of the battery cell; and wherein the number of grooves are defined between side edges of the at least two separate members with respect to corresponding surfaces of the battery cell, the number of grooves each accept an amount of the adhesive corresponding to a thickness of the side edges of the at least two separate members.
