      Do you have a name or part number for those banana jacks to alligator clips?
      Thanks,

      ​@@ScottCard, I opened all the links again just to be sure matches the description, they do.
      That is weird as the pinned comment is missing the link on the public side, yet showing on your end, should be the same on both sides. I attach a picture but RUclips does not provide such an option.
      Since the link is missing, can you please post it in the reply?
      Thanks,

    Awesome how to video. I started making my own scope/testing leads and test equipment for automotive diagnostics. I think I'll use 14 wire for everything. I love the heavy feel. Those male connectors with the holes in them are quite clever, but I prefer the look of the larger style stackable connectors.

    Great showcase of how to do it right, good quality components make all the difference. I've put the 18AWG wire and both connector types on my shopping list. Thanks

    Great video. So I am moving from a cheap multimeter to a 34401a benchtop multimeter and it's not coming with any probes. I would buy probes with banana Jack's on them without the safety Shield just to be sure that I have something good, but I would really like to not spend that much. I can zero any probes.
    I was looking at 4 feet. Any suggestions?

    • @ScottCard
      @ScottCard  Год назад

      Nice meter! If measuring voltage, any probe could be used provided the proper voltage rating. If however you are looking for current, the voltage drop though the probe wires can become an issue. The 4 wire resistance does get around this nicely but just keep the limitations in mind. For voltage, I have a set of these (nice and sharp).

      But for general use, maybe something like this if you are on a budget.

    Hi can you help me In choosing a Bench multimeter in the past and in the future I repair a lot of Xbox one x and other ones and also in the future I want to be able to repair amplifiers AV amplifiers and tube Amplifiers all things like that can you recommend a around good desk top multimeter which is not too dear something around £100 to £300 it would help me so much thanks mark

    • @ScottCard
      @ScottCard  6 месяцев назад

      The Rigol units would fit the bill. A 5 or 5.5 digital is likely more than enough for this work. Keep an eye open on the used market as well. Just be sure that you get something that can be calibrated. Thanks for the question, and I hope this helps.

      Yes, not cheap, but they have been solid and show no sign of degradation.
