A power supply includes a main body having a coupling face and a handlebar. The coupling face includes a first end and a second end forming a power socket. The handlebar includes a first beam coupled to the first end and a second beam. The first beam extends a tab outwardly. The handlebar defines a window configured to expose the power socket. The handlebar is transitionable between: (i) a first configuration in which the second beam couples the second end, the window corresponds and exposes the power socket, the tab extends toward a first direction, and (ii) a second configuration in which the second beam is remote from the second end, the window is remote from the power socket, and the tab extends toward a second direction different from the first direction. A method for removing the power supply from a case of an electronic device is also provided.

This disclosure describes a portable electronic device that includes a device housing having a device housing component defining an opening. In some embodiments, the opening can be an acoustic opening configured to accommodate the passage of audio waves into and/or out of the device housing. The portable electronic device also includes an input control disposed within the device housing; and an electrical component disposed in a first position between the input control and the opening defined by the device housing component. At least a portion of the electrical component is configured to shift from the first position to a second position in which the input control is actuated by the electrical component.
