Trying to connect a Macna jacket to a some Keis heated gloves.

Unlike Keis Macna doesn't use standard 5.5x2.1mm DC connectors.

These are kind of inverse, and the connector from the jacket to the gloves the isn't something I've seen.

Anyone have an idea what it is?

I don't want to start cutting off connectors, but instead make up my own adapter/harness.

Bit hard to judge the size but maybe a 2.1mm trailing socket. Maybe make a little plug-to-plug adapter?

I hope you don't self-immolate/Spontaneous Combust.

I'd start by contacting Macna to see if a replacement connector is available for the Macna heated gloves. Then you should be able to make up the adaptor that you need. If unavailable, you may be forced to replace the connector in your jacket.

5.5x2.1 isn't standard, 5.5x2.5 is. Keis sell adaptors so other brands can be used with their own odd sized plugs.
