Pros: Works well, build is not too bad, the clipons are handy to use. The length is ok.
Cons: The band size is tiny! I expected something like a wiimote fit, but this is just tiny! I don't have big wrists, but it was very tight fit, other people couldn't fit it because the elastic band is just very short. Length of the wire is ok, but it might be in the way because it's not very long. You are always unclipping yourself, such in a way you will just leave it off after 10 minutes.
Bottomline: Only good if you have small wrists! My wrists are only 21cm around, bigger than that you won't fit it.
Pros: Every PC tech needs one. It does what every other strap does. It's not even 2 bucks! Build quality is sturdy. The elastic strap seems strong enough to withstand a lot of usage abuse and the plastic latch also seems strong for that price. It serves it purpose well by preventing electrostatic current from damaging the electronic parts being handled. It also has a crocodile clip which can be removed from the end connector. Metallic plate which is in contact with the skin won't rust easily with perspiration.
Cons: It's pretty small doesn't fit big european wrists (Probably Fits well for asians). Makes my wrists ichy. Crocodile crip seems fragile.
Other Thoughts: Don't listen your friends, those say: "i've opened my computer case thousand times and nothing happened". Read some about static electricity and use ESD wrist strap!.
Bottomline: Get this if you touch any sensitive (and expensive) electrical parts.
Pros: If you've ever worked on your PC (even just adding an internal CD drive) without static protection you will know the worry that you will fry something just by touching it - with this simply connect yourself to a ground point and poke around until you are bored!
Cons: Cord not massively long, but put your work bench next to a ground point and it is fine.
Other Thoughts: Tips to fint ground points in normal house: In UK central heating radiators, metal piping and gas piping all should be grounded. Easiest is prob to connect this to a radiator
Bottomline: Again much cheaper than replacing a burnt out PC part (and wasting hours trying to find it!) also great if you are messing with consoles or other such electronics.
Pros: -If you work professionally or for hobby with computers or electronics, one of these anti-static wrist straps is a must! -The price is also awesome! -In other websites it like up to 15 Dollars for the same strap -so it is just very cheap. -The cable is long enough and you can even stretch a lot when you need it
Cons: No real cons, although the piece that clutches the strap is a little strange, as you have to put it all the way down to secure the strap but the strap itself won't fit well between this clip and the holder anymore.
Bottomline: -IT´S CHEAP GET LIKE 5 OR MORE! - you gonna need it if you are working with electronics so you don't fry some ones computer
