What are you guys using for test leads (for either a DMM or scope) when you are doing a lot of breadboard work? Something that plugs in?

I’d be interested in hearing that works best for you.

Thanks!

For solderless breadboard? I take the el cheapo route and just poke in a clipped resistor lead and clip to that. It’s not the most secure connection in the world, but breadboard’s a bit hairy anyway :slight_smile: you could use some of those 2.54mm headers too for a bit more style.

Another option is solid 22awg is perfect for bread boarding, can clip to that easily enough. I usually just clip to resistor leads though.
