What kind of connector is this?

Hi, I got a BMS from China. I expected JST 2,54mm connectors but got smaller ones. The distance between the pins is about 1,77mm.

So it is not a

JST PA (2.00 mm (0.079 in)), not a JST PH (2.00 mm (0.079 in)) and not a JST ZH (1.50 mm (0.059 in)).


Anyone got a name for those kind of connectors so that I can find and order a few spares?

Thanks!

did you try contacting the supplier?

I've never seen it or use it before. Sorry.
I'd take it to an electronics shop, they'll tell you

Looks like a JST ZH 10 pin male. Try measuring the inside to outside on the female. And try finding the spec sheets for the connectors, the tolerances will differ from one manufacturer to another, although usually by about +/-0.05 not .2. The spec sheet will also give you the overall width of the connector which is probably more important, the pins will flex but the plastic doesn't. If they're too wide in either direction you're also SOL.

I read the specs of several JST connectors. It is most likely a JST PA Connector. Not the usual typ PH which has also a 2.0mm pitch. The PA are hard to get. Crap!
