A battery receptacle system for a rail-style battery pack that is useful for vibrating tools and devices includes multiple resilient members anchored in grooves of the battery receptacle's base. The grooves are positioned below arms that extend from the receptacle's opposing lateral walls. Between each arm and groove, a rail recess accepts rails on a cooperating rail-style battery pack. The resilient members are configured to extend into the rail recess and provide support and resistance against the battery pack's rails when it is engaged with the battery receptacle. The resilient members counteract any excess force and rapid movement caused by the vibrations of the power tool or device coupled to the battery receptacle and battery pack.
