Good for me ??? Well maybe I can explain it like this, you buy a Snap-On ratchet; couple it to a Snap-On extension, then fit a socket from a $4.99 Chinese socket set. Or serve a Big Mac on Mikasa Antique Dinnerware. Or serve Sevruga Caviar on Mel-mac.
With Fluke or the leads that come with most meters, I have to RUB the contact to death to make a good connection. OK, let's SHARPEN those probes. Oh Damn! Brass. Pierce wire insulation? "Shirley You Jest".
I have a fondness for stuff that works well and reduces errors. And lost time. And the amount of red face anger and embarrassment I feel when trying to use garbage and failing miserably.
Works For Me !!!
Roy B,
SHOWOFF!
I would sell my left elbow for a set of those Hewlett Packard probes. They were made to last. In the mid seventies I had an LED HP voltmeter. I was king of the hill!
