A carrier may include a base with several cell bores, with each cell bore designed to carry a battery cell. The carrier may include several walls, with each wall having one or more surfaces that conform to a shape or surface of the battery cell. For example, a surface of the wall may include an arc with a shape that corresponds to that of a cylindrical battery cell. One of the walls may include opposing surfaces, each of which conform to the shape of multiple battery cells. Also, each cell bore may include a ledge to seat a battery. Additionally, a carrier may include several ribs that provide a vent or channel to direct a gas. In addition to battery cells, carriers may also carry cooling tubes designed to cool the battery cells.
