    Default What are these plugs called ?

    Need to buy one but don't know what they're called to look them up.
    Think I've seen them on like a multimeter or something, with a solid metal pin prob brass and split cross wise.
    The pin is around 6mm diameter or maybe 1/4".

    Just checked and it's closer to 13/64" that anything else.

    By the way, a banana plug won't do because it has to handle the current for charging a 12volt wet cell.

    Looks like a type of bullet connector.

    I use these, which are very similar.

    Ah bullet, yes you'd be right there.
    These are the original on the battery.
    I need one cos there's one missing form the charger end.
    You can see they have a tapered tip, I just didn't bother drawing that in.
    When I think about it, I have some crimp bullets in the shed. Might see if one of those will fit.

    The bullets were too small and prob a bit light too so I grabbed some brass and turned up a pin.
    I'll just 3D print the plastic part now and glue it on.

    Thanks anyway.
