Current testing of battery powered products.

This is not really a project just something I knocked up for testing current draw of batteries without having to mess with trying to hold probes and batteries and circuit under test. it is just two strips of copper foil bonded back to back with double sided sticky tape and two wire soldered on, it is inserted between the battery and terminal and the meter is connected to the wires, very quick and easy.

Been using a sliver of double sided copper clad PC board material for the same purpose. Works great!
