Crocodile clips

Postby steamraiser » Thu Mar 23, 2017 3:07 pm

I went to Maplins to buy a few crocodile clips.
I was not impressed to see all sizes £1.99 each!

I went looking and found Minature Crocodile Test Led Kit which has 10 x 370mm leads each with to croc clips, 5 assorted colours for £8.99 - 20 croc clips for less than a tenner.

Plenty on Ebay. These are £1.58 for 10 and the postage is free.

I know you already have a set of these leads!
All users beware...they are poorly assembled and often have high resistance connections due to poor crimping.
They need to be soldered and then are useful
