NOVELTY - The holder (10) has a vehicle mounting plate (12) for securing the battery holder to a vehicle and including multiple holes for receiving fasteners. A battery (22) is supported on a battery containment plate (14). An upper surface of the battery containment plate is provided with open-topped cells for retaining spilled battery liquid. A shock absorbing element (20) is positioned between the vehicle mounting plate and the battery containment plate for absorbing shocks and vibrations received from the vehicle to partially and mechanically isolate the battery from the vehicle.    USE - Battery holder for securing and mechanically isolating a battery from a vehicle. Uses include but are not limited to cars, boats, personal watercrafts and all-terrain vehicles.    ADVANTAGE - The vehicle mounting plate is made of corrosion resistant metal or plastic material, and includes multiple fastener holes for securing the vehicle mounting plate to a surface of the vehicle and the shock absorbing elements to the vehicle mounting plate. The holder ensures that shock absorber fastener holes can be countersunk or counterbore for preventing battery liquid from leaking out when shock absorber fasteners are secured in the shock absorber fastener holes. The shock absorbing element can be secured directly to the vehicle without utilizing the vehicle mounting plate. The holder can absorb the vibrations and shocks transmitted or generated by the vehicle so as to prolong service life of the battery. The fastener holes receive fasteners of the shock absorbing element for securing the battery containment plate to the shock absorbing element. The holder ensures that a battery securement component is placed between the vehicle mounting plate and the battery containment plate and aligned in a battery securement component guide so as to secure the battery to the battery containment plate. The battery is secured between the battery containment plate and the battery securement component when the battery holder is assembled between the battery containment plate and the battery securement component. The shock absorbing elements mechanically isolate the battery from the vehicle. The holder ensures that tapered ledges provide an ergonomic contour that prevents objects from catching on the battery holder.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The battery containment plate is made of molded plastic and corrosion-resistant billet aluminum material.
