Review on Streamline Your Prototyping Work With WayinTop Jumper Wire Kit - Preformed & Flexible Breadboard Jumper Wires With Tweezer Tool by Flee Pannell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not great, but not terrible. Perfectly average.

All wires are 24AWG when they should really be 22AWG, making them too flexible and brittle. Most of the DuPont-style connectors still have little tails of flash from the molding (though that doesn't affect usability). Comes with some pretty good tweezers (with an extremely fine point), which you will definitely need. If you take care of it, this kit will serve you just fine for a long time (if you have a low-quality or worn-out breadboard, though, you'll almost certainly run into problems with bad connections due to the undersized wires). Would I buy this again? Yes, but first I would look for a kit with 22AWG wires.

Pros
  • Thumbs up
Cons
  • The kit does not come with instructions or tips for optimizing use, resulting in a steep learning curve for beginners
