Were to buy?
Just wondering if these are used for something else and a local vendor might stock or is this just made for the hobby? Trying to get one today. Thanks Todd

Do you have an electrical supply store in your area? Might try Radio Shack...
I was searching for those one day and found a source for a bunch of them for the price of just a few, But I didn't bookmark it so I can't remember who it was.

There are some Chinese knock offs around which are no good at all. I have only seen the M/plex connectors in that light green and occasionally in red. The pins on the Chinese ones do not flex and bend instead which makes for a bad connection also the plastic has a lower melting temp which makes them tricky to solder. Assuming you only want them for battery leads then I would take a look at some Deans connectors.
