Quick Tip Sunday

AWESOME!!! Love it!!!

This is a great tech tip. When I purchased my first 2 channel I made a call to the SO service center and bugged the heck out of them I'm sure. I asked them what was the most common repairs that they encountered with their units as I was self tought and was afraid of damaging my investment at first. They did mention this to be a critical fault. Stacking the grounds.

That's a great tip Chris, in case someone wears out their original leads and replaces them with a non SnapOn set, AESwave sells a ground quadruple that works great also.

I found myself have issues running multiple amp clamps. David would that lead help?

What kind of issues have you run into? Does the signal get noisy? I can’t remember if I’ve run multiple amp clapms of my snapon. I’ve for sure run them on my pico without issue.

The ground connectors. Running both amp clamps on my 4 channel with my voltage leads, I have to get creative every time. The SO amp clamps dont have a piggy back and with the versus only having one ground terminal it can get frustrating. I need to check to see if aeswave has a a splitter. I also run into it when I use my pulse sensor as it has a bnc to bannana pig tail and dosen't have a piggy

My snap-on low amp clamp is a stackable lead. its one of those in the pics

one is the yellow lead, the other is the amp clamp

My bad. Now I feel like an idiot. It's my transducer set up and my pulse sensor I have the issues with, not my amp clamps. I just looked to verify. Sorry Chris and thank you for the correction.

Pulse sensor you say, that looks pretty cool. Would you mind a little show and tell?

Absolutely, I make my own custom pressure pulse sensors. With the amount I have invested in equipment I often try to build my own gear when possible until the financial side catches up with my wish list. A few years back I had several classes and spoke with sevral technicians using pressure sensors in their diagnostics and I was hooked. This was shortly after I invested in my 1st scope when

That's awesome, I would love to see a write up on that case study. If I wanted you to make me one, how much would it be?

I'll be posting last weeks case study as soon as I get the chance. I'm just curious if I should wait till it's a fix or update it as I go? As for selling I Haven't thought much on that. Chris look me up on FB.

Either way is good. Message sent

Yes Mike it will help, I do it all the time. In fact that was my first thought when I saw that. aeswave​.​com/Ground-Quadrup…

Sweat thank you David. That's awesome.

That ground quadrupler works great for my pulse sensors also.

Just awesome!
