Abstract: This is a slidable battery holder for a simulated pager having a concealed radio transmitter. A fixed part of the battery holder is affixed to a bracket inside the housing of the simulated pager and provides a guideway which is open at the lower end of the housing. A pair of cantilevered leaf spring contacts are at the upper end of this guideway. The slidable part of the battery holder has a dielectric slide that is slidably received in the guideway, conductors on one face of the slide which engage the cantilevered switch contacts when the slide is pushed in, and battery contacts beyond the opposite face of the slide for engagement by the terminals of a battery. The battery contacts are connected conductively by their bias springs to the conductors on the slide.
