iFixitAnti-Static Wrist Strap, Blue

Quick words about the continuity issue: This wrist strap indeed provides connectivity; however, it will not show continuity when tested with a multimeter due to its 1MOhm impedance. This specification aligns with its advertising and is a design feature meant to ensure safety. I’ll go back to this, but let me talk about the strap itself now.The strap is comfortable, easily adjustable, and appears durable. It can be connected to a grounded socket in a power supply using a banana plug or to the chassis of a device using an alligator clip, offering versatility in its use. The cable is both flexible and sturdy. A potential improvement could be the addition of a clip or mechanism for easier wearability, although its elastic band design was clear at the time of purchase, and it functions as expected.Regarding the continuity concerns mentioned by some users, my experience confirms the product's specifications. It has an impedance of about 1MOhm, which is intended to safeguard both the user and the devices by enabling a slow discharge of any static electricity. Direct grounding without any impedance could pose a risk if one were to encounter a high-voltage wire, as it facilitates a direct path to ground that could be hazardous. To verify this feature, one should use the impedance setting on a multimeter, expecting to see a value around 1MOhm. Most multimeters set their continuity detection threshold significantly below this, typically between tens and 500 Ohms, explaining why the continuity test may not trigger the expected buzzer sound.

Works great

Fonctionne parfaitement.Bon rapport qualité prix.Pensez bien à vous connecter sur la prise de terre d’une prise afin d’éviter les décharges électrostatiques durant des réparations informatiques.

Handig ding dat z'n werk doet als je het niet vergeet vast te klikken op de aarding 😅😅Prijs is meer dan voordelig en als je het rond je been doet, dan merk je er niet eens iets van terwijl je aan het zwoegen bent met de elektronica.Thx!
