Charging connectors

Two charging connnectors for German bomb fuze. The one on the left really does have only one pin, unlike the other one, where there was a second pin which has broken off.

Great condition Tony. :)
My guestimation for the 'one-pinner' would be that its for charging a single pinned 17 variant or a 57?

cheers

Or the 26 perhaps. Of course the loader would have to be extra careful to get it the right way round!
 
The first one is embossed "mV" which I take to be "mit Verzogerung(?)" -"with delay" - but where does the wiring harness attach?

Never seen it befor Phil looks like a connector for a headphone or something

It came from Egun with the connector and a few other odds and sods,but the pins line up perfectly with the plungers on an impact fuse.

Not sure so will put it in ID and wait and see.

Best phil
 
Here are the ones i managed to root out.
