Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Does anyone know the name of this connector?
so I can buy the correct matching plug
it's 2.54mm (0.1")pin spacing



Edit:

It looks similar to a JST XH connector but these are 2.5mm and the connector is definitely 2.54mm

Looks like JST-XH https://www.amazon.ca/Litorange-Housing-Adapter-Connector-Terminal/dp/B087CPV5T4/ref=sr_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=JST-XH&qid=1619487821&sr=8-7

Chances are that 2.5 is 2.54 rounded down. Even if 2.5 is genuine, with just 4 pins it will flex to fit. If it were 40 pins you would have a problem.

I searched for 2.54 mm specifically and mostly get results for the 2.5 mm Xh connector. The ones that do list as 2.54 mm are mostly from Chinese sites, maybe a discrepancy in the conversion of 0.098 inch to mm. Oddly enough, 0.098 inch is actually 2.4892 mm so the variation seems to swing in both directions.
