InTheMail | Voltlog #329

Welcome to a new InTheMail, the series that will touch both your passion for electronics and your bank account at the same time. We have a selection of different items received in this mailbag, I’m gonna start with these quick connectors, these are a 2 input to 4 output type and they can be useful if you want to split a two wire pair, into multiple pairs and have those connected without having to solder wires or twist them together. They are rated for 600V 32A and can take a wire with a diameter between 0.08 and 4mm but as always take these specs with a grain of salt and don’t push them to their limit if you want to stay on the safe side. What I like is that they also have a couple of mounting holes so you could attach these to a panel.

Welcome to a new InTheMail, the series that will touch both your passion for electronics and your bank account at the same time. We’re gonna start with this set of tweezers from Vetus. A few months ago I was considering buying some more expensive electronics tweezers but the good ones are really expensive when you include shipping as well so in the end I decided to give these a try. I’ve had Vetus tweezers in the past and some were good some were bad. This time I asked multiple sellers on Aliexpress if the tweezers are original Vetus or not, some responded and promised their goods are original. Coincidentally or not those who said their products are original also had higher prices. In my experience with suppliers, they never lie about the origins of a product if you directly ask them so I tend to believe that what I have here are genuine Vetus tweezers
