A latch (16) for latching or locking a battery housing (14) to a portable radio housing (12) automatically locks into place when it is placed in the radio, and automatically ejects the battery housing when it is unlocked. The latch is movable from a first position, in which the battery housing is locked to the portable radio, to a second position, in which the battery housing is unlocked from the radio, and movable from the second position to the first position. The latch comprises a spring biasing apparatus (18) for attaching the latch to the housing, retainer apparatus (22) for locking the battery housing to the radio, and a spring finger member (20) for ejecting the battery housing from the radio housing when the latch is moved from the first to the second position.
