What type of connector is this?

[8bit]

This is the charging connector on a submersible vacuum cleaner for use with a hot tub. I've managed to mislay the charging cable which came with it. The manufacturer do not supply the cable as a spare part. The cable had a regular USB-A connector on one end and the corresponding version of this on the other. It's about the same size as a C17/Figure-8 connector but obviously somewhat different. For the purposes of helping me find a replacement, does anyone know what this type of connector is?

IEC320C7 polarised ?

How big is it? The above one is usually used as a AC mains connection.

Thanks, will have a look.

It's about the same size as a regular figure-8 connector, just a different shape - one half is round, the other is more square and the two sides are separated with that bit up the middle. It was definitely a USB connector on the other end of the cable though.

Thanks Jenny!

Our vacuum is the Lay-Z-Spa/Bestway one, it does look a lot like that Intex one though.

And thanks again - the cable arrived yesterday and fits and charges the vacuum perfectly. PH delivers

I love PistonHeads for this sort of thing, there’s an expert here for everything!

Actually - it was a lucky guess.

I've never seen that connector before.


Glad it all worked out!

Give yourself some more credit, based on the type of device it was to be used for it was a well-judged guess Thanks again anyway. I'm amazed I haven't found the original one though, the new cable arrived yesterday...
