Are there any test probe/connector options for plated through holes in PCB's?
ajb:
Taking the spring out of this style of grabber and keeping the cap compressed to expose the tabs seems to work alright on ~1mm holes. There's no positive lock, and you'd have to be careful to not snag and damage the exposed metal prongs, but they're cheap and widely available (you probably already have some!). Actually slightly higher quality ones with thicker prongs seem notably better. You could probably reshape the prongs a bit to make them easier to insert.
