(The images of the plug are stills from a video. I don?t have it in my possession.)
The header measures approx.: pin dia: 0.6 mm,0.024 in spacing: 3.85 mm, 0.152 in
How can I identify the type of shell and pin used in this connector?
Thanks.
Could it be 3.81mm / 0.150" pitch?

in my
It looks like 0.1" spacing 0.025"' square pins, aka 'wire-wrap pins' with a suitable crimp mating shell. Something like this
Looks like a Tektronix 222PS "Power Scout". I replaced the battery on one once. I think I succeeded but I'm not 100% sure. Photos (including views of the mating connector) and more details here:
I decided the battery connector had 0.156" spacing. I *think* I inferred that because it was bigger than 0.1" and looked like other
0.156" connectors I have seen. I don't remember if I actually put a ruler on it or held the Tektronix connector up to a known 0.156" connector.The housing on the wires didn't have any kind of locking clip (to hold it to the pins on the board) or keying/polarizing arrangement.
When I replaced the battery, I just re-used the existing connector, so I didn't have to buy a new one. Digging around online a little, a Molex "KK" housing, series 2139, part number 09-50-7031 might work; that's not exactly the same as the one that is there now, though.
Standard disclaimers apply: I don't get money or other consideration from any companies mentioned.
