https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/545af325-0b3c-47a5-a34a-a461312f38d0 Dave demonstrates why gold plated multimeter probes matter, and why you should be using them for all your electronics measurements. NOTE: Many people didn't understand the point of this video. It's about oxidisation of contacts, gold basically doesn't do this, other probes can. Also gold probes are not necessarily recommended for regular high current, high power electrical use, that's what I mean by an "electronics use", as opposed to "electrical" use which is why Fluke for example don't offer gold plated leads. And as always, YMMV. Fluke offer fine top "electronics" gold probes: http://amzn.to/2fCuoSN Probe Master probes: http://amzn.to/2vNUmc7 BM235 Probes: http://amzn.to/2vNUsR1 Forum: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblab-33-why-gold-plated-probes-matter/ EEVblog Main Web Site: http://www.eevblog.com The 2nd EEVblog Channel: http://www.youtube.com/EEVblog2 Support the EEVblog through Patreon! http://www.patreon.com/eevblog Donate With Bitcoin & Other Crypto Currencies! https://www.eevblog.com/crypto-currency/ EEVblog Amazon Store (Dave gets a cut): http://astore.amazon.com/eevblogstore-20 T-Shirts: http://teespring.com/stores/eevblog 💗 Likecoin – Coins for Likes: https://likecoin.pro/@eevblog/dil9/hcq3 Sat, 09 May 2026 08:21:20 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://stream.echo6.co https://stream.echo6.co/client/assets/images/icons/icon-512x512.png https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/545af325-0b3c-47a5-a34a-a461312f38d0 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://stream.echo6.co/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
