1. A mounting clip for a battery housing, comprising:
a support structure comprising a unitary body having a longitudinal axis, a base portion, and an upper portion opposite the base portion;
a recess extending partially into the support structure at a location along the support structure between the base portion and the upper portion, the recess configured to receive a printed circuit board and the recess configured to enable the printed circuit board to move within the recess to dampen loading;
a portion of the support structure defining the recess includes an upper region and a lower region, the lower region extending further away from the support structure than the upper region, and the portion comprising a C-shaped cross section relative to the longitudinal axis of the support structure;
a cross member coupled to the support structure, the cross member extending crosswise to the longitudinal axis of the support structure, and the support structure suspends from the cross member; and
a pair of flanking support members coupled to the cross member and flanking the support structure.
