Default Re: Who's still using their old Safebloc?

Great bit of kit and use mine a lot.

A word of caution. If mounted as mine is on the front of the bench, it is only too easy to close the door while working on the chassis. I have done this a number of times fortunately without receiving a shock! The same applies if mounted on the bench top. The lid can snap shut. Always open it up fully to lessen the risk.

I also admit to owning and using those lovely crocodile clips with a Clix plug on the end .. Very useful for overriding mains switches etc and connecting odd receiver connectors to the mains. Of course you have to wear your sensible hat while using.

I also have a high regard for the 5amp Clix plug. Good solid contact and can be yanked out in a second should anything start to overheat. John.
