A battery pack latching or locking mounting system comprises a battery case, a cell pack disposed within the battery case, a battery cap or end closure, and a spacer which is longitudinally interposed between the cell pack and the battery cap or end closure. A first latching element or detent is mounted upon the spacer, and a second latching el- ement or detent is mounted upon the battery cap or end clo- sure. When the battery pack is initially mounted within the tool housing socket, the first latching element or detent of the spacer lockingly engages the single aperture defined within a side wall portion of the tool housing socket so as to lock the battery pack at its first OFF position or state. When the battery pack is moved still further into the tool housing socket in the longitudinal direction so as to be moved to the second ON position or state, the second latch- ing element or detent of the battery cap or end closure en- gages the first latching element or detent of the spacer and causes the first latching element or detent of the spacer to be depressed radially inwardly so as to be disengaged from the single aperture defined within the side wall portion of the tool housing socket such that the first latching element or detent is able to be accommodated internally within tool housing socket. In addition, the second detent or latching element of the battery cap or end closure is now permitted to engage the single aperture defined within the side wall of the tool housing socket so as to lock or latch the bat- tery pack at the ON position or state with respect to the portable tool.
