I need to know what this electrical connector is called.(male and female pieces) It's the same one used for the proto sound 2 battery and also the lights on many MTH engines. I want to make sure I have the right information before I buy some of these in bulk. Thank you Erik

Yes that's what I meant. MTH has stopped carrying the original lights for the early QSI equipped loco's. I need to improvise and make my own now. Miniatronics sells a bulb that can handle the voltage that I run. But these end connectors or overwhelming to find in the catalog that I have and they list precise ID codes.(part #'s) And thanks you to all that replied. Hopefully someone will be able to get me in the right direction. Originally Posted by gunrunnerjohn:

Dale, I think he wants a specific connector.

 

That one was posted here some time back, but I can't find the post right now.

 

 

 

 

Thanks, stan2004. Your help was greatly appreciated and got me in the right direction. Originally Posted by stan2004:

Thanks gunrunnerjohn, I checked those out. The only thing is that I don't understand what the (ma) rating is for the bulbs. I don't want to burn up the board or cook the shell from a light getting too hot. GGG was able to help me out with the bulbs and he has more that I'm going to stock up so I'm good for my lifetime I think.Lol Originally Posted by gunrunnerjohn:

Here's a brighter one that obviously also consumes more power: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of...-leads-/121194277746
