(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?

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.
