That’s bad. However, the good news is that with little effort you can prevent it. Duratool has a kit of the most common tools for any electronics workbench. It includes a large mat, grounding cable, wrist strap, ESD-safe cleaner, and a simple electronic tester. Don’t get shocked by electrostatic discharge; add these simple tools to prevent it.&#10;This review is on a kit that includes:<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_bKaZ5IOkg"><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m_bKaZ5IOkg/hqdefault.jpg" alt="Bald Engineer&amp;#39;s ESD Must-Haves | Workbench Wednesdays"/></a></p><p><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/m_bKaZ5IOkg" title="Bald Engineer&amp;#39;s ESD Must-Haves | Workbench Wednesdays" width="560" height="315" loading="lazy" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_bKaZ5IOkg">Watch this video on YouTube</a></iframe></p></description></item><item><title>6 Simple Mistakes Electronics Beginners Make</title><link>https://www.baldengineer.com/6-simple-mistakes-electronics-beginners-make.html</link><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2014 14:00:47 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.baldengineer.com/?p=2456</guid><description>Sometimes the hardest lessons are the ones you have to learn multiple times. When getting started with Electronics circuits, there’s a handful of things that can ruin a day (or experiment.) Here are 6 mistakes I made when I got started, and mistakes I see in the beginner classes I teach. In fairness #6 isn’t one I did starting out, because Fritzing wasn’t around. However, it took me a while to learn the value of providing a schematic, even a simple sketched out block diagram.<p><img src="https://www.baldengineer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/6beginner-mistakes-banner.png" alt="6 Simple Mistakes Electronics Beginners Make"/></p></description></item></channel></rss>
