Does any have any idea what this electrical male and female connector is called? I’ve hunted high and low on the internet but without any luck. I need to get a bunch to daisy chain some batteries together.

If they're difficult to find, can you not just get a bunch of radio controlled car battery connectors an replace these ones with something more common/available?

You can get very similar ones in Maplin.

Oh, wait... 😢

Does it have to be that exact type or can you replace them with something similar?

Paul_m These look like them. Thanks all for your suggestions. I could replace all the connectors but god knows why the company decided to use some non standard connector. Hopefully these mate n lock connectors will do it.

Depending on the quality of workmanship you require, you may need a dedicated crimp tool.

Otherwise a generic crimp tool may do, or worse still fine nose pliers
