1. A conformable battery pack assembly comprising:
an array of individual electrochemical cells electrically connected with one another, the array being surrounded and encapsulated by a flexible outer shell,
wherein the array is arranged geometrically so that there are at least three non-parallel bending axes, and
the array of individual electrochemical cells includes a first array and a second array, the first array and the second array occupying separate, but parallel planes, individual cells being offset from one another between the parallel planes.
