Is this connector for tanks?

Post by Markocaster »

I got a mystery packet in the post today from China , I didn't order it but it was addressed to me?

All it was is this connector. Being a rookie at electronics. What's this for? Is it tank related?
I was guessing to charge a battery in the tank?
Cheers

Does any type of tank battery pack connecter plugs fit into the green box with the 2 pin points with the positive and negative indicators. If not I would think it was not made for tanks unless additional wiring is done.
I've never seen anything like it.

It accepts a male plug similar to your electronic power supply for like a Futaba radio, the green connectors is for the red & Black wires going to ---what ever... The same thing is on the back of a laptop where you plug your male power plug into (the female end is what you have pictured) the only difference is the laptop plug is a hard mount.
