Electrical connector type ID please

[Fyrme]

I'm hoping someone will pass by this thread that recognises this type of 2 pin connector and can give me a name/style, so I can find them online to buy some. I got a few of these LED lights, but they didn't come with any wiring. But being 120v, If I can find some ends, they can be hooked straight to a 120v power source. The manufacturer wants a ridiculous price for the jumpers, so I'd rather make my own.

OK, deleted my previous message because I found thee exact one, I think. It is a 2-pin Molex Mini-Fit Jr

I do believe you are correct sir. Thanks for your time!

No problem, lucky for you it is a VERY common and relatively cheap connector.

I figured as much, but not knowing the names of any of them, makes for a lengthy Google search.

depends on your definition of cheap. The cheapest I'm finding is $10 for a 3 pack

I'm used to that or more for a single connector (which is why I included the word relatively).

That being said, everywhere I am checking (TME.EU, DigiKey, Mouser, etc.) have them for under $0.50 per housing (and around $0.20 for the crimp parts).

I'll check them out. I've gotten so used to using Amazon and eBay for finding stuffwith free shipping, I don't think to look elsewhere.

Digikey still offers free shipping if you pay with a check or money order. Few people know about this.
