Hi,

This fitting is attached to my battery for easy charging.
Is there a specific name for this fitting ?

I have found images of them by searching for two-pin connectors but no name and am having difficulty finding the male part on eBay.

thanks

That's an old style optimate charging connection.

They were replaced with a different design ages ago so you will probably struggle to find one.

New style.

Looks like a tamiya type plug for RC cars.

They're easy to find. I bought one last week from Jaws Motorcycles in Greater Manchester. Call Karen on 01942 677177. You need the TL type.
