The 12 pin connector that mates with an LG battery module's sense header, supplied with its pins. The plug you need to get cell voltages and temperatures off the module and into your BMS.
An LG module brings its cell taps and temperature sensors out on a single keyed header. Until you have the matching plug, that data is inaccessible, and a module without cell level monitoring cannot be used in a pack: the BMS has nothing to balance and nothing to protect against.
This is the part that turns a module into something you can wire. It is a small, cheap component that a whole build waits on, so order one per module and a spare.

Features
- Correct mating half for the LG module sense header
- Pins supplied, so nothing else is needed to make it off
- Lets cell voltages and temperatures reach a standalone BMS
Compatibility
For LG battery modules with a 12 way sense header. Check your module's header before ordering, since module generations differ.
Order one per module. A pack of twelve modules needs twelve of these, and they are the sort of part that stops a build if one is missing.
Crimp the pins properly. These are small signal terminals carrying cell voltage measurements, and a poor crimp shows up as a cell that appears to drift for no reason. Use a ratcheting crimper with the right profile.
