It is on my Optimate TM471 battery charger. The charger comes with two pigtails that can be plugged in (one with ring terminals, one with spring clamps). I wired the ring terminal pigtail to my airframe to allow for easy connection of the charger, without removing the battery. I would like to utilize the spring clamp pigtail for easy connection of a ground power source, but I need the matching connector to set up my power source. Thanks.

Used to have a segment in the weekend seminars on that subject . . . we've talked about it over the years here on List as well. Perhaps and article for one of the fly-rags would be in order as well as a Shop-Notes on AE.com . . . I'll put that in the hopper.

Ken The individual terminal looks like what's in typical tail/brake light connectors for small trailers. I googled 'trailer connector' & one of the 1st hits was this: https://www.delcity.net/store/2-Way-Flat-Connector/p_8873.h_84862.r_IF1003?mkwid=sGlFIIm7H&crid=38094426869&mp_kw=&mp_mt=&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvdXpBRCoARIsAMJSKqIW44OSVL3xnDBzqOwrt2abA-SpQW5cZU6ziMvTlMOP2wCO604p8awaAq2kEALw_wcB Anyway, that's where I'd start looking.

Forgive me Have you considered cutting that connector off and substitute a different one more comparable with your needs?
