POE switches are a common one. can't really automate a repair shop, every board is damaged in a different way (and currently I'm doing about 50 different products), and I'm not just testing fets, I'm testing diodes, current sensors, shunts, etc. @DC1MC: wow, those tungsten tips are pretty much exactly what I need, THANK YOU!!!!!! |

95% of my clients are in the US, but regardless, wind itself can be enough to cause massive ground po0tejntial differences between the top oif a poorly grounded tower, and the ground. this alone is enough to blow the equipment I work on. also, I don;'t know what part of canada you are from, but my lab had 8 days without power from a single storm this summer, we had trees blocking roads in town for even longer. |

doesn't look like aluminum, but it is a very soft metal. the injection moulding is dollar store quality, shockingly terrible for such an expensive set of probes. poking a solder pad on 2 wire with the SS tips gives me about .163ohm, .104ohm with the gold pogos. for a simple guy like me, that's what I call "very nice". I imagine I'll wear the SS tips down in short order, so I'll be ordering the 1.0mm tungsten electrodes and we'll see how they work and I'll update this thread periodically |
