An electric tool comprising:

• an electric tool housing;
• an electric motor located in the electric tool housing;
• an energy store for supplying the electric motor with energy;
• an actuating member operatively connected to the electric tool housing for actuating a switching means for supplying the electric motor with energy;
• and
• an energy store housing removably attached to the electric tool housing;
• wherein the switching means is located in the energy store housing, and the actuating member, during movement, acts in at least one of a direct and an indirect manner on the switching means to actuate the switching means;
• said electric tool further comprising transmission means, that operatively interacts with both the actuating member and the switching means, arranged in the electric tool housing to transmit movement of the actuating member to the switching means, wherein the transmission means is a leaf spring arranged to extend in the electric tool housing such that a first end of the leaf spring is in operative connection with the actuating member and a second end of the leaf spring is brought into operative connection with the switching means via the actuating member.
