Review on πŸ”’ Reliable Protection: IFixit Adjustable Anti Static Wrist Strap for Effective ESD Safety by Tony Reid

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Do not buy ESD products

DO NOT BUY This product is awful it just doesn't work like the wire connecting the strap to the clip is just a piece of plastic. I built my computer trust the product cause it's ifixit right? After I finished assembling I noticed that the plastic sheets protecting my devices were sticking to my body as if there was static electricity on my body so I decided to check the strap with a multimeter and of course between clip and Belt no passage. I checked the resistance, continuity and like a jumper between the battery and the LED and nothing worked just no continuity between the strap and the wire. No matter where you attach the clip to it it just doesn't work so now I have a dead motherboard and a bracelet and both don't do shit so my advice is to skip ifixit and if they manage to mess up something so simple I expect they'll mess up something more complex, like their screw tip sets. TL; DR DO NOT BUY IFIXIT

Pros
