sandspider Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Part of a 12v bathroom light system and I need to replace it. It's not the similar looking L6.2-2P connector, as the body is only 10mm wide and the distance between the terminal centres is about 5mm, not 6.2mm. Anyone know what it is, or where I can find one? Cheers. Picture's gone a bit pants. It's not this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264094937756 Though it does look quite like it. Clip is on the side not on the top like the ebay one...

mgsontour Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 I can't ID it for you but you could always solder it, job done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandspider Posted January 4 Author Report Share Posted January 4 Thanks, but the connector is broken at the end that clips in, and the terminals inside look burnt. Needs a new connector, I think anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20alex09 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Not 100% sure that they’ll have it but RS Components have a good range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are available from model shops and known as a Tamiya connector, there are two sizes and the smaller one is called a " mini Tamiya" connector. The mini is also used in the Airsoft industry but the polarity is reversed compared to the model trade, the larger is used on Oxford motorcycle battery chargers again with reversed polarity.

sandspider Posted January 23 Author Report Share Posted January 23 Ah, that looks very close, thank you. Though I think mine has one square and one u shaped terminal, that one seems to have 2 u shaped. Hmm, will go and measure mine again. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandspider Posted January 25 Author Report Share Posted January 25 Cheers. I'm not at home at the moment and blurry photos are all I have to go on, but I think the top pin of mine has a square profile, and the bottom pin is U shaped, as in the cad pic. Might be able to make it fit though Alternatively I could just cut the connector off and stick the bare wires in! That would be simpler.
