Wanted: Push On Hook Clip Adapter

[HarryA]

Cheers from Penn's woods.

I am looking of push on clips for test leads. Like:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mueller-BU...PaddedFlatRateEnvelope!18612!US!-1:rk:11:pf:0

These are 16.95$ plus 7.15$ s/h; I am to cheap to pay 12.05$ each. Is there a better place to buy them?

thanks

I'd imagine you can get the clips you solder wires to, for about $1 or $2 delivered from China, and the same for some banana plugs (providing you don't expect high quality for dirt cheap), then add whatever wire type and length you need.

You might also find assembled combinations of the above for cheap from China. $2.18 delivered:

If they're not up to your standards, consider them a backup set and... it's only $2.

eBay is a jungle though, keep looking and there's more to be found, like a little cheaper or a generic version of what you wanted.

Thanks gentlemen but the type I am looking for have a hole in their back end that you slip onto the pointy
end of the existing test lead. Only have one for one meter and on the second meter they are
the screw on type which takes sooooooooooo long to screw on and off. I don't want to have to
exchange the test leads that's a pain also.

My 3rd link was that type, and there are others on ebay too, cheaper than $24 a pair. Some are both push-on, and threaded to screw on at the end of the push-on range.

Your RED push on one shown. looks like the push on model offered by Radio Shack.
This person offers free shipping .
This is also less than the $24 total "Mueller" rip off.

Thanks, I ordered two pair of the Radio Shack clips. No more screwing around
