    In the summer of 2019 I was visiting my 83 year old Aunt in her 100 year old home. Home improvement shows had convinced her that white light switches and plugs were more ecstatically pleasing. A change…

    I had foolishly removed the two, three way light switches at either end of the hallway without documenting the connections. You are not alone on that one - now if the wiring behind a fitting or socket…

    There have been many many times when I've been visiting a friend or relative and they say "While you're here, can you take a look at this - it's not working". Of course I have no tools with me, and all…

    I love participating in various science fares and other student competitions.

    I also go to several maker gatherings here in India.

    I was the youngest (<18) year old participant in the robotics area of MakerFaire Bay Area this year.

    I don't have an oscilloscope so a small USB would be really great. Also in those fares I don't have a lot of space so an USB oscilloscope is great.

    Also, in such times debugging quickly is very essential when you are confused, so the tools would really help me.

     

    A long time ago I had tried to make a simple oscilloscope circuit from the internet that can measure say a sine wave but that never worked so a Oscilloscope of any form will help me understand electronics in a better way.

    Also I need some professional measuring tools because currently I am using a $2 AliExpress Multimeter and a normal scale which don't turn out to be very useful.

    Nope, they don't.

    The first time I brought such multi-meter the leads broke the first day. When it broke. I bought this.

    As soon as I got it I cello-taped the leads so that they don't break this time round.

    I have one of these as well - the leads are very fragile. I filled the end with hot glue to try and stabilize the internal connection.
