Provided is an electric storage battery including a jelly roll type electrode assembly having a mandrel. The mandrel includes a positive portion, a negative portion and a removable portion. In some embodiments, the mandrel is planar having two faces with a groove on each of the positive and negative portions. The grooves can be on the same or different faces of the mandrel. The grooves are dimensioned to accommodate a positive and negative feedthrough pin. The electrodes are wrapped around the mandrel using the removable portion to wind the mandrel. Once wrapped, the removable portion can be detached. The positive portion and the negative portion are left in the electrode assembly insulated from each other. The mandrel allows tighter wrapping of the jelly roll assembly, increasing battery miniaturization and also results in electrode assemblies in which after-placement of tabs does not result in burrs or shorting.

The electrode assembly of claim 1, wherein the positive electrode, the negative electrode, or both is/are interposed in the first groove or the second groove between the positive feedthrough pin or the negative feedthrough in respectively and the mandrel. 11. The electrode assembly of claim 1, wherein the separator is formed of polyethylene, polypropylene or layered combinations thereof. 12. The electrode assembly of claim 1, wherein the mandrel is planar. 13. The electrode assembly of claim 1, wherein the positive electrode and the negative electrode are wrapped around the mandrel. 14. The electrode assembly of claim 13, wherein the one or more removable portions are capable of being detached prior to sealing the electrode assembly in a battery case. 15. A method of preparing an electrode assembly comprising: providing a mandrel comprising a positive portion, a negative portion, and one or more removable portions, capable of detachment by cutting or breaking;wherein the positive portion and the negative portion are adjacent to and connected by the one or more removable portions; andwherein the mandrel includes a passage from a first face to a second face dividing the positive and negative portions;providing a positive electrode attached to the positive portion;providing a negative electrode attached to the negative portion;providing a positive feedthrough pin;providing a negative feedthrough pin;providing a first groove on the positive portion configured to accept the positive feedthrough pin;providing a second groove on the negative portion configured to accept the negative feedthrough pin;conductively connecting the positive feedthrough pin and the positive electrode to the positive portion of the mandrel;conductively connecting the negative feedthrough pin and the negative electrode to the negative portion of the mandrel; andproviding a separator that passes through the passage in the mandrel so as to be interposed to the positive portion on the first face and the negative portion on the second face. 16. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein detachment results in unconnected positive and negative portions,wherein detachment results in unconnected positive portion and the negative portion. 17. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein the positive and negative feedthrough pin are independently selected from steel, platinum, aluminum, titanium, niobium, molybdenum, platinum-iridium, copper and alloys thereof. 18. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein a positive electrode material and a negative electrode material are independently selected from aluminum, steel, silver, copper, nickel, titanium, or alloys thereof. 19. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 18, wherein the positive electrode is coated with a positive active material selected from lithium cobalt oxide carbon monofluoride, silver vanadium oxide and combinations thereof. 20. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 18, wherein the negative electrode is coated with a negative active material selected from lithium titanate, artificial graphite powder or lithium. 21. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein the mandrel is formed from an electrically conductive material selected from stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, nickel, copper and combinations thereof. 22. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein the mandrel is formed from a non-electrically conductive material selected from polypropylene, polyethylene, or poly(ethylene-co-tetrafluoroethylene). 23. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, further comprising the steps of placing the positive feedthrough pin in the first groove in the positive portion and placing the negative feedthrough pin in the second groove in the negative portion. 24. The method of preparing an electrode assembly of claim 15, wherein the positive electrode, the negative electrode, or both is/are interposed in the first groove or the second groove between the positive feedthrough pin or the negative feedthrough pin respectively and the mandrel. 25.
