Ownership verified by DX Works as it should be

Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: less than 1 day

Price: star

Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: Small and usefull. And it really works. The quality of the material looks and feels good. It does what it was designed for.

Cons: No english manual available and the price could be a few dolars less. If the price was about $2 i was going to buy two of them.

Other Thoughts: I was getting zapped everytime i touched my laptop at the office. Now im carrying it in my pocket and touch it frequently.

Bottomline: If you're worried of getting zap you should buy this :)
By the way awesome for hobbyist and computer/electronic technician

Pros: * Love the size as it fits nicely together with a bunch of keys in a keychain.
* Easy to use and good indication that you've been 'discharged' with the LCD.
* Works great and saved myself from getting zapped for once (finally) and I hope many more times to come.

Cons: Had a pretty strong zap (after taking off a winter jacket with all the static build up) and it kinda left a little permanent mark on the LCD when it discharged. Nonetheless, better a mark on the LCD than on me!

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Get this tool if you're constantly worried of getting zap.

Ownership verified by DX It's not a shocking experience

Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: IT WORKS...but of course that's a pro. Another purchase for my GF. She gets shocked all the time at work, and carries this with her. After the first day she was so happy, "I didn't get zapped at all" She was super happy with this purchase

Cons: I'm still not sure what icon means what. I don't use it though, so I don't really care. She knows how to use it, and keeps it with here every day.

Other Thoughts: It's small and can fit on a key-chain really easy, simple to use and it's handy in what it does.

Bottomline: Anyone working in a high static environment would benefit from this, It's different from a normal wrist strap, and yet almost quite as handy.

Ownership verified by DX Works very well

Pros: I spend a lot of time working in a Datacenter, under controller humidity and temperature condition.
Getting static is a norm, and having to tied myself up to one of those anti-static strip is a *arghhhhhh*
With this tiny gadget I tied it together in my ID tag's chain.. I can approach equipment with less worry.
Of course... stick to anti-static straps during handling of circuit boards.. but I make it a point to "zap" myself before I touch anything without a strap in reach.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: if only it can be slight smaller... maybe at around 0.5 inch long.. :-)
Still impressed by the small amount of static can drive the LCD screen....

Bottomline: Handy tool for IT engineers.
