Abstract
A tool for disconnecting a battery from an electrical connector pad, the tool having a body connected to at least three prongs, including a first outer prong, a second outer prong, and a middle prong. Each prong has a proximal portion connected to a distal portion by a sloped portion. The middle prong may have a side extension, including a side extension proximal portion, a side extension sloped portion, and a side extension distal portion. The tool may be part of kit comprising at least one battery adapted to be disconnected using the tool.

A tool for disconnecting a battery from an electrical connector, comprising:
- a body connected to at least three prongs, including a first outer prong, a second outer prong, and a middle prong, each of the at least three prongs having a proximal portion connected to a distal portion by a sloped portion, the distal portion of each of the at least three prongs having a thickness less than a thickness of the respective proximal portion, the middle prong having a side extension extending from a side of the middle prong toward the second outer prong, including a side extension proximal portion, a side extension sloped portion, and a side extension distal portion, the distal portion of the first outer prong and the distal portion of the middle prong each having a first thickness, the proximal portion of the first outer prong and the proximal portion of the middle prong each having a second thickness, the distal portion of the second outer prong and the side extension distal portion of the middle prong each having a third thickness, and the proximal portion of the second outer prong and the side extension proximal portion of the middle prong each having a fourth thickness,
- wherein the first thickness is greater than the third thickness, and the second thickness is greater than the fourth thickness.
A tool for disconnecting a battery from an electrical connector, comprising:
- a body connected to at least three prongs, including a first outer prong, a second outer prong, and a middle prong, each of the last least three prongs having a proximal portion connected to a distal portion by a sloped portion, the distal portion of each of the at least three prongs having a thickness less than a thickness of the respective proximal portion, the middle prong having a side extension extending from a side of the middle prong toward the second outer prong, including a side extension proximal portion, a side extension sloped portion, and a side extension distal portion, the distal portion of the first outer prong and the distal portion of the middle prong each having a first thickness, the proximal portion of the first outer prong and the proximal portion of the middle prong each having a second thickness, the distal portion of the second outer prong and the side extension distal portion of the middle prong each having a third thickness, and the proximal portion of the second outer prong and the side extension proximal portion of the middle prong each having a fourth thickness,
- wherein the first thickness is greater than the third thickness.
