An electrical circuit is disclosed which is suitable for use in a portable electrical appliance 10, such as might be used as a remote transponder for a vehicle security system. The circuit includes a coin-cell battery 16 which is connected to a printed circuit board (PCB) 12 by soldered weld-tags 18, 20. A support layer 24 is laminated to one face of the PCB 12 and has a recess 26 defined in it. The battery 16 sits in the recess 26, which provides lateral support to the battery 16 so that the likelihood of displacement of the battery 16 substantially along the plane of the support layer 24 in the event of shock is reduced. <IMAGE> |
