Why did we all decide on cylinders as the battery shape? with the exception of button cells and the occasional D battery, most consumer batteries are all cylinders. I want something really strange, like a AA battery shaped like a tiny bowling pin, or a lantern battery that's a little mlp figurine with the terminals on the hooves
@hrbrmstr@mastodon.social@Dio9sys 9-volts are rectangular, tho (but, inside it's two cylinders).
@hrbrmstr they simply hide the cylinders from the public
@hrbrmstr (fun fact: unwrapping a 9 volt battery is how you get AAAA batteries for small hobby projects!)
