What connector is this?

Can anyone identify what this connector is?

It's similar to an EC5 but it isn't an EC5.

Socket:



Plug:

That doesn't look automotive to me, maybe try the DIY forum as well.

Can you give any context, and dimensions?

Is it an EV charger socket?

Thanks, I'll try there too.

It's actually from my Lithium Jump Start pack (which works very well BTW):

It looks as if it may be some variant of an XT60, but without dimensions it's really hard to say.

ETA: Are those four openings populated with signal pins?

Not as far as I can see, no sign of them on the socket either

I very much doubt it's anything with a name, just an in-house connection. It may, or may not, be compatible with other makes of jump-packs.

That was my thought.

Bang on!

I asked the company and it is jndeed a proprietary connector.

Not the end of the world, I was just hoping to use it as a 12v supply for other things.

Looks like banana type plugs would fit in the holes, ones presumably positive, one negative.
Check with a multimeter first

Will they sell you an extra set of leads?

I'm not sure it's all that proprietary, more like a pattern that's used on lots of similar devices.

This looks at least very similar, https://www.amazon.co.uk/WMYCONGCONG-Alligator-Con...

The 'flat' on that one is on the wrong side of the pin - wont fit.

Carve it off with a sharp knife?

That's an EC5 plug ... not the same.

Looks like an SAE connector where they've made both sides of the plug female.

Proprietary or not, a bit of digging on AliExpress may get you a seller of premade leads that you can snip to make your own.
