    I have the same impression. I read something recently about 
how these batteries were assembled but don't remember where. 
Maybe on the web. However a google search for lantern batteries 
turned up

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_battery   Which mentions 
both D and F cells.
Also:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_battery_sizes
which has dimensions. F cells are about half way down.
