It has one flat circular terminal, c12.4mm in diameter with notched edges and a triangular shaped groove on the upper face with three circular indentation within this. The object then has a moulded shaft, with an oval cross-section, measuring c7mm in width. The other terminal is very unusual it has a rounded tip with a circular hole drilled through it, 2mm in diameter, now incomplete due to wear.
