Review on πŸ’ͺ Optimized Vastar AntiStatic Wrist Strap Components by John Bailey

Revainrating 1 out of 5

REALLY NOT ANTISTATIC! DO NOT BUY!

I thought it was incredible last year. I then took out my multimeter and found that there was no continuity between the metal plate on the strap and the clip on the end. I could very well have a living bracelet from Grani. Absolutely useless. For those who don't know, the bracelet has a metal plate that touches the skin. You then attach the wire to the bracelet, and at the end of that wire the alligator clips attach to something grounded. I use a grounding plug in an extension cord. This works because the metal plate allows any build up of static electricity to drain from your body, down the cable and down to the floor. But if there is no continuity between the plate and the clamp, then it's useless.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Exorbitant price
