My kit is several years old and when I purchased it I bought it without the battery pack, so the kit came with no connector from the battery packto plug in the charger to or the controller. Both of these are female, by the way, so the connector from the battery pack needs to be male. I did some looking around at the time and could not locate a male counterpart, so ended up fabricating something from a regular grounded plug by breaking off the round ground portion. This worked, but made it possible to mistakenly reverse the polarity by not being careful how it was connected. With the correct connector this mistake could not happen. Recently I did just that and fried my controller. Happily I have found a replacement through this forum and am back in business. HOWEVER I don't want to repeat this mishap a second time. very possible if someone else connects the battery pack to the controller without paying close attention. I have tried hardware stores, radio shack, a local electrical supply and have had no luck. This connector has three vertical slots/tabs. Where can I get one? What is this type of connector called? Many thanks,
