What kind of connector is this?

Hello fellow makers.

A while back I bought an entry level TwoTrees diode laser rig. I wanted to upgrade the 5.5w diode to a decently powerful one for usefulness, so I ordered a TwoTrees 20w (4x diodes).

It was a special order. It came with the board and the laser, but no wire to connect them.

Anyone seen a connector like this? Any idea what it is called or what kind of wire (tips) I need here?

The connector is the same on both ends. First pic is of the laser. Second pic us of the board.

Looks a little bit like the XT60 connectors you see on hobby RC packs.

Do you have a dimension for the overall length, pitch and contact diameter?

Yeah, MR30 or MR60, depending on pitch, I’d say. Edit: MR60 at a guess given that it has 2 splits in the pins rather than just one, but I’d be measuring it to check. Edit2: Never mind, I can see both versions with 2 splits, so yeah, depends on measurements.

Thanks. The outside of the connector is 11.62 x 4.5 mm. The yellow plastic outer wall is 0.5 mm thick. That would make the inside of the connect 10.62 x 3.5 mm. The connector pins seem to be “about” 3.25 mm apart on centers.

Y’all are amazing! Thank you so much!!!

Yeah, MR30 then.

That has the dimensions for the line socket in there.

Looks like it matches close enough.
