ANCIRS 4 Pack 2mm Needle Test Probes, 600V/10A Non-Destructive Multimeter Test for Leads tl71 tl75

Worked well for my application

The equipment I work on is getting smaller and smaller. There are times now when standard multimeter leads won't fit into a tiny molex for testing or when things are really close together. These fit over my leads just fine. Be warned that they are needle sharp, which is what you want, but it hurts when you accidentally stab yourself. People talk about durability, but how could anything like this last forever? I broke one, but it was definitely my fault. Unfortunately I bought the option with two sets and it didn't slow me down. I like them so much that I also gave them out to a couple of technicians I know, who were really happy with them. I have now gifted four sets and all of them were really appreciated. It's pretty hard to get a technician something they don't already have.

I do a lot of work on small electronics and standard multimeter probes just don't cut it when you're trying to probe a tiny connector without bridging contacts. These slip right onto my existing leads and make precision testing so much easier. They are genuinely sharp so you will stab yourself at some point, just a warning, but that's actually the whole point of them. Really glad I picked these up and for four bucks they're a no brainer addition to any electronics toolkit.

This aftermarket product works just as good as the original

It is very compact to test the tight space

I design (and need to debug!) printed circuit boards for a hobby. With current surface mount techniques it is easy - and sometimes necessary - to pack components together tightly. This makes probing difficult with a standard multi-meter probe without shorting different pins together. Shorting then requires more debugging to find what component you killed. These "needle" probe tips slip right on over standard multi-meter probe tips, and eliminate that problem. The shafts of these probes are metal with a plastic sheath that leaves only a bit of the tip exposed. They are quite needle like and when pressed on a soldered pin, tend to NOT slip off. Very nice The plastic sheath slides up and down the shaft so, in very tight spaces, you can slide it down so only a tiny bit of metal is showing right at the needle tip. When slid up, this sleeve leaves around 1/8" of tip exposed.

The quality of these probes is not great and I don't expect them to last as long as the ones I own made by Fluke. The price is right for a second set of probes or ones that aren't going to see heavy usage.

Proves fit Fluke 375 and are good quality. Happy with this purchase

Fit my fluke meter.

Super useful and inexpensive

Nice tool to have in your tool crib for any car electrical diagnostics, couldn't diagnose my buick without it.

Work well

Fit on my Fluke leads great. Very pointy. Watch your fingers!
