Hi guys,

Just got a battery box off ebay, and it has well, changed a bit from the original description... It looks fairly standard but I can't ID the thing myself. Any ideas would be great :)

Indeed. The two sizes are 2.1mm and 2.5mm, and it refers to the diameter of the pin in the middle.

Hard to tell the scale from your photo, but it looks bigger than 2.5mm. And I guess the outer metal sleeve is for positive and negative connection, if so a single pole jack plug isn't what you want.

Looks more like a RCA phono plug?

2.1mm or 2.5mm for sure. Very common on bike light battery packs/boxes from eBay.
