Etronix Female Battery Tamiya Block To Male Micro Tamiya Adaptor ET0821 Lead RC

DO NOT USE WITH AIRSOFT as polarity does not match

Etronix Female Tamiya Block To Male Micro Tamiya Adaptor ET0821

- to convert an ESC large Tamiya plug to take a batter fitted with a Micro Tamiya connector, e.g. Carisma or Voltz Hobby Engine batteries.

I have a few Micro Tamiya options. ET0626 Male with wire. ET0627 Female with wire. ET0821 Male micro adaptor to female Tamiya, or With Female deans ET0820 or Female EL ET0823, or EC3 ET0825. Female Micro to male Demas ET0819, or EC3 ET0826, or Male Tamiya ET0822, or Male EL ET0824.

Sometimes these are called Mini Tamiya and I have these as connectors only ET0793M for Male , ET0794M for Female and ET0795M for a packet with one male and one female.

Wiring

The usual wiring has the positive (red) wire running to the terminal with a square profile, and the negative (black) wire running to the half-circle, half-square terminal. This is true for both genders of connector. The female sockets are in a male housing and the male pins are in a female housing. The male pins (female housing) connector is usually on the battery side.

In electrical and electronics engineering, the convention is that gender refers to the metal contact parts of a connector in order to avoid ambiguity. A large number of hobbyist retailers selling these connectors refer to the gender of the plastic housing, which is against convention and can lead to errors.

In some cases, Mini-Tamiya connectors are wired in reverse polarity. This is often the case with airsoft guns, where the square profile terminal is the negative terminal and the rounded terminal is the positive terminal.^[3]
