A battery package (100) includes a latch (106) for easy attachment to a radio (402). Engagement of the battery package (100) to the radio is accomplished via matching a plurality of retaining rails (110) via notches (112) with a plurality of opposing and complementary retaining rails on the radio (402). A simple sliding motion locks the latch (106) to the radio (402). Disengagement requires little force as the latch (106) is depressed in the same direction as the battery package (100) is slid down. The battery comes to a stop when an alignment of the notches (112) with the radio retaining rails has taken place. An effortless lift separates the battery package (100) from the radio (402).

A contact array (10) for electrically connecting an energy source (20) to a radio (12) and a charger comprising a circuit assembly (31) having a plurality of integral radio and charger contacts (38, 40) extending from one end of the circuit assembly (31). Two terminals (34) extend from a second end of the circuit assembly (32) for connecting to the energy source (20), and means for attaching (42) a component (44) to the top side (32) of the assembly (31). The means for attaching (42) are integral to the circuit assembly (31).

Contact array

A contact array (20) for electrically connecting an energy source (10) to a radio (35) and a charger (15), comprising a circuit assembly (40) having integral radio, charger, and circuit package contacts (52, 54, 56) extending from one end of the circuit assembly (40). Terminals (66) extend from a second end of the circuit assembly (40) for connecting to the energy source. A circuit package (60) is disposed adjacent the charger contacts (54) to electrically and mechanically support the contacts.
