Abstract: A method of transporting at least one energy storage device comprising the step of housing at least one energy storage device in a cassette comprising: a hollow casing for receiving at least one energy storage device; a top cap assembly received at one end of the hollow casing and an end cap assembly received at another end of the hollow casing; electronic circuitry housed within the end cap assembly, the electronic circuitry comprising at least one receptacle associated with each of the at least one energy storage devices, the at least one receptacle being reversibly mateable with at least one plug associated with an external device such that the cassette is received by the external in a first orientation and a second orientation; and electrically isolating the at least one energy storage devices from each other by individually coupling the at least one energy storage device to the electronic circuitry.
