Most modern hobby-grade chargers use 4mm Banana Plugs (Bullet Connectors) as their main output port. However, many NiMH battery packs for Tamiya cars, Kyosho kits, and airsoft guns still use the classic white Tamiya Connector. This adapter bridges that gap, allowing you to charge your legacy battery packs on a modern computerized charger.
Key Features
-
Universal Charger Fit: The 4mm Banana Plugs fit virtually all standard hobby chargers (IMAX B6, Hitec, Dynamite, Spektrum, etc.).
-
Quality Wire: Built with 14AWG Silicone Wire, which is flexible and can handle higher charging currents without overheating compared to cheap stiff PVC wire.
-
Standard Connector: Features a Male Standard Tamiya connector on the battery end (which mates to the Female Tamiya connector found on most 7.2V NiMH stick packs).
-
Strain Relief: High-quality soldering and heat shrink at the joints ensure the wires won't pull out after repeated use.
