Tim,

No insulating sheet is necessary. The battery is double shrink-wrapped, there are no parts on that area of the PC board, and there’s nothing sharp that could abrade the plastic covering. It’s all quite safe.

There is of course a rubberized pad on the inside of the bottom cover. This creates high friction to keep the battery from moving around.
