Anyone know where I can get a Tamiya 6v Battery Connector?

I can't seem to find one in the usual places (eBay etc).

It's the battery end that I need to replace (for a vintage 3 speed 4000mAh battery).

Thanks!

Think I noticed one in spares box the other day - will check.

Which type are you looking for?

There are two types of 6V connector:

The 4000Mah Bruiser/Hilux battery connector. Tamiya X9118. This is very similar to the standard Tamiya Connector, but with one plug rotated 90 degrees.

Can't find any on-line now. Took me a while to find one a while back.

 

There's also the older 6V connector for the regular sized pack. A smaller plug. Tamiya 50039.

That's the one Yonez - thanks

@Tamiyabigstuff, thanks but those are the Tamiya minis I think.

Check before ordering as those connector sets are for the old scorcher type oblong 6V - 1200 MAH battery , to be correct you need the larger one for the chunky 6v 4000 MAH , see top of page 11 in the Blazer and page 15 in the Blazer manual for alternative battery options . Bruiser manual pages 14 - battery deck installation  and page 16- installing battery ( note the battery and speed controller fittings ) also note the extra info on alternative battery type installation options on the LH side of page 16 . I've got one of the larger speedo fittings for the 4000v battery and they are a lot bigger than the standard 7.2 and 6v fittings
