The secondary battery may be constructed with an electrode package including an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator interposed between those two electrodes, each of the positive and negative electrodes may have region uncoated with active material along the edge thereof; and a positive lead and a negative lead fixed to the uncoated regions of the positive and negative electrodes, respectively, with the direction along the length thereof being parallel with the direction along the lengths of the uncoated regions of the positive and negative electrodes; a container having an interior to receive the electrode package; and a cap assembly fixed across an opening of the container to seal the container. The cap assembly may have terminals to be electrically connected to the positive lead and the negative lead, wherein the electrode assembly is mounted in the container at a predetermined angle between its direction of width thereof and the height of the container.
