A surgical instrument, comprising: a housing;a motor; anda battery assembly attachable to said housing of said surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell configured to provide electrical energy to said motor; anda battery housing, comprising: a support housing configure
1. A surgical instrument, comprising: a housing;a motor; anda battery assembly attachable to said housing of said surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell configured to provide electrical energy to said motor; anda battery housing, comprising: a support housing configured to support said battery cell; anda shock absorbing element configured to absorb shock provided by an impact force, wherein said shock absorbing element is configured to crumple when an impact force is applied to said shock absorbing element,wherein said shock absorbing element is replaceable, andwherein said shock absorbing element comprises attachment means configured to permit said shock absorbing element to be attached to said battery assembly in a snap-fit fashion. 2. The surgical instrument of claim 1, wherein said attachment means comprises an adhesive. 3. The surgical instrument of claim 1, wherein said battery housing further comprises an aperture, and wherein said attachment means comprises a protrusion configured to be received by said aperture in said battery housing in a wedge-fit fashion. 4. A surgical instrument, comprising: a housing;a motor; anda battery assembly attachable to said housing of said surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell configured to provide electrical energy to said motor; anda battery housing, comprising: a support housing configured to support said battery cell; anda shock absorbing element configured to absorb shock provided by an impact force, wherein said shock absorbing element is configured to crumple when an impact force is applied to said shock absorbing element,wherein, when said shock absorbing element crumples, said shock absorbing element deforms in an inward direction which still permits the attachment of said battery assembly to said housing of said surgical instrument after said shock absorbing element has been impacted. 5. The surgical instrument of claim 4, wherein said shock absorbing element is replaceable. 6. The surgical instrument of claim 4, wherein said shock absorbing element comprises a lattice structure. 7. The surgical instrument of claim 4, wherein said shock absorbing element crumples when the impact force is greater than a threshold force. 8. The surgical instrument of claim 4, wherein said battery assembly further comprises a plurality of corners, wherein said battery housing further comprises a plurality of said shock absorbing elements, and wherein said plurality of said shock absorbing elements are positioned at each said corner. 9. The surgical instrument of claim 8, wherein said battery housing comprises: an electrical contact configured to transmit electrical energy from said battery cell to said motor; anda bottom face associated with said electrical contact, wherein each said shock absorbing element comprises an end portion extending beyond said bottom face of said battery housing to protect said electrical contact. 10. The surgical instrument of claim 8, wherein each said shock absorbing element comprises a bottom end and a top end, and wherein said battery assembly further comprises a shock absorbing cap positioned at the top ends of said shock absorbing elements. 11. A battery assembly for use with a surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell;an electrical contact configured to transmit electrical energy provided by said battery cell to the surgical instrument when said battery assembly is attached to the surgical instrument;a first housing configured to support said battery cell;a second housing configured to house said first housing; anda shock absorbing layer positioned between said first housing and said second housing, wherein said shock absorbing layer comprises a lattice structure,wherein said lattice structure comprises a plurality of cells, said plurality of cells comprising:an inner cell comprising an inner planar wall, wherein said inner planar wall is oriented at least substantially parallel said first housing; andan outer cell comprising an outer planar wall, wherein said outer planar wall is oriented at least substantially parallel said second housing. 12. A battery assembly for use with a surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell;an electrical contact configured to transmit electrical energy provided by said battery cell to the surgical instrument when said battery assembly is attached to the surgical instrument;a first housing configured to support said battery cell;a second housing configured to house said first housing; anda shock absorbing layer positioned between said first housing and said second housing, wherein said shock absorbing layer comprises a lattice structure,wherein said battery assembly further comprises a shock absorbing cap, said shock absorbing cap comprising:an outer lattice; andan inner lattice, wherein said outer lattice is more dense than said inner lattice. 13. The battery assembly of claim 12, wherein said shock absorbing layer comprises a foam-like material. 14. The battery assembly of claim 12, wherein said shock absorbing layer comprises a plurality of dampening elements. 15. A battery assembly for use with a surgical instrument, said battery assembly comprising: a battery cell configured to provide power to the surgical instrument;a housing, comprising: a heat reflecting shell;a heat sink layer; anda compressible layer positioned between said heat sink layer and said heat reflecting shell, wherein said compressible layer is configured to flex in response to expansion of said battery cell. 16. The battery assembly of claim 15, wherein said compressible layer is further configured to dissipate impact energy absorbed by said heat reflecting shell. 17. The battery assembly of claim 15, wherein said compressible layer comprises a lattice structure. 18. The battery assembly of claim 17, wherein said lattice structure is a closed lattice structure defined by said heat reflecting shell and said heat sink layer. 19. The battery assembly of claim 15, wherein said heat reflecting shell comprises a first thermal expansion coefficient, wherein said heat sink layer comprises a second thermal expansion coefficient, and wherein said first thermal expansion coefficient is less than said second thermal expansion coefficient.
