The connector, sometimes called Tamiya or Kyosho, is keyed so that power cannot be reversed. A latch secures the connection so that it will not become disconnected. This is the **female** version of the connector (we also offer a matching [male version](https://core-electronics.com.au/tamiya-plug-with-10cm-leads-male.html)). Two 10cm 14-AWG wires are crimped inside the connector housing and extend 9cm past the plastic housing. The leads have silicone insulation and stripped, tinned terminations.
