Abstract: A phone housing includes an attachment section for receiving a battery pack. A slot in the phone housing receives a latch made formed from a unitary piece of plastic. The latch inserts and locks inside the slot and is compressible inside the slot allowing the battery pack to be inserted into the attachment section. After the battery pack is seated in the attachment section, the latch springingly expands out of the slot engaging with the battery pack. The latch includes a unique combination of legs that operate as a spring and arms that serve to lock the latch inside the slot.
