Default Trying to locate mating barrel plug / socket ... ;-(

I'm looking (unsuccessfully so far) for the mating half to this, 'DC
barrel connector'?:

It's looks to be about 8mm ID and the pin 2.5mm OD, it's the end of a
42V / 2A Li-Ion battery charger for an electric scooter (two wheeler
type).

I would be happy to find one in any form but ideally either chassis
(so I can fit it in a small 3D printed box) or in-line, so I can
convert it to something that is easier to interface for testing etc.

I was wondering if it might be the same size as the DC in on some of
those micro PC's or I've seen on some odd models of laptop and whilst
it looks familiar, it's around 8mm OD, not 5.5. ;-(

If the charger were mine I might cut the connector off and re-join it
with some Powerpoles or XT60's but it isn't (I have one on order).


Cheers, T i m


I don't suppose it would fit a phono socket?
