Quick words about the continuity issue: This wrist strap indeed provides connectivity; however, it will not show continuity when tested with a multimeter due to its 1MOhm impedance. This specification aligns with its advertising and is a design feature meant to ensure safety. I’ll go back to this, but let me talk about the strap itself now.The strap is comfortable, easily adjustable, and appears durable. It can be connected to a grounded socket in a power supply using a banana plug or to the chassis of a device using an alligator clip, offering versatility in its use. The cable is both flexible and sturdy. A potential improvement could be the addition of a clip or mechanism for easier wearability, although its elastic band design was clear at the time of purchase, and it functions as expected.Regarding the continuity concerns mentioned by some users, my experience confirms the product's specifications. It has an impedance of about 1MOhm, which is intended to safeguard both the user and the devices by enabling a slow discharge of any static electricity. Direct grounding without any impedance could pose a risk if one were to encounter a high-voltage wire, as it facilitates a direct path to ground that could be hazardous. To verify this feature, one should use the impedance setting on a multimeter, expecting to see a value around 1MOhm. Most multimeters set their continuity detection threshold significantly below this, typically between tens and 500 Ohms, explaining why the continuity test may not trigger the expected buzzer sound.

I totally admit i've been winging it since I was a kid doing tech repairs and maintenance with no strap. Well it's about time I finally got one just incase. The iFixit one made me convinced to get one as I know they are a quality maker of tech tools and this was no exception. It feels really well built and doesn't get uncomfortable when working.It's that good easy of mind just incase you know?

I wanted to add an adapter card and SSD to my computer and didn't want to damage the components with static electricity. This wrist strap was perfect -- easy to use, comfortable, and exactly what I needed.

Works well and has a good group. Would be nice if the tether cord was a little longer but overall great product.

I haven't used it yet but obviously how can you go wrong it's affordable and too simple a product for it to be defective in any way so of course I'd recommend it!

I mean can't say it doesnt work, but i also cant say it does, so it works? The product is definitely great quality material.

After researching ways in which to donate a computer, I read about the destruction of the electronics by static electricity when attempting to remove the hard drive. Not wanting to take any chances, I purchased the iFixit Anti-Static Wrist Strap - ESD Grounding Wristband. The wristband itself was easy to put on and the instructions very simple and straightforward. I proceeded to remove the hard drives from two computers without incident thanks to the decision to purchase the wrist strap.

Cet article est de bonne facture. Ile est indispensable pour se décharger de l’électricité statique avant d'ntervenir sur de l’électronique. Excellent choix.

Guter Artikel, lässt sich leicht tragen und stört nicht.Leider etwas Kurz, eine Verbindung mit Bananenstecker wäre sinnvoll gewesen um das Kabel bei Bedarf verlängern zu können.Aber ansonsten gibt es nichts zu meckern...

Comodo bracciale per evitare il più possibile danni da microcariche ai componenti elettronici. Volendo ci poteva stare un filo arrotolato un po' più lungo (per quanto ovviamente estensibile), comunque un buon prodotto a mio avviso

Attached to the plugged in switched off psu then later case and was grounded for the build. All went well. Good when combined with an antistatic mat. Great value and can reuse later. Easy to apply, and grip was incredibly strong! Recommended attaching to your ankle to leave your hands free.
