    I don't know the name, but I recognize it.
    I have it on the end of my halide pendant cord and it connects to the ballast. Does that help? Or are you looking for just the name to replace it or something?

    Was looking for name. It's on the mogul socket that connects to my CSL ballast. Was wondering if it was a PFO?

    Everything I have seen refers to the plug as a 'quick-disconnect.'
    PFO has them on their stuff, but they don't seem to sell just the plug.
    Lot's of different brands have those.

    The cooltouch lighting ballast I have (see update in lighting forum) uses cords w/ ends like those on computer power supply coeds.

    Hmm.. I'm lost! [smiley=stars.gif]

    Are you trying to replace the cord?

    (Sucks about your ballast, that's lame! Thanks for the update.)

    Yes I want to replace the 'computer type' cord, as I've just received my Icecap Electronics. I just have to cut the ends, and replace them w/ regular 3 prong ends.

    Ugh, so that's different than the cord link I posted?
    Well if you figure out a good way, let us know, might help someone else. Good luck!
