5.0 out of 5 stars STARTECH ANTI-STATIC WRIST STRAP REVIEW, June 30, 2008

I recently changed the ram chip in my desktop and decided I should use a wrist strap. Didn't have one so I ordered the Startech. Like all wrist straps it's a rather simple device: a velcro band, a coiled wire and an alligator clip. The band fit my wrist nicely, the coiled wire was of sufficient length and the clip possesed the necessary spring tension to keep the clip in place. I am satisfied with my purchase, and I recommend it.

Good for the price. Feels a little flimsy but I don't use it often (3-4 times per month) so it suits my needs just fine. Strap is a little uncomfortable/rough on skin. Clip has nice strength and doesn't come loose easy. Coiled lead is just the right length and doesn't get in my way while working. All in all a great buy!

My husband used this anti-static wrist strap in mid 2009 while adding two GB RAM to our Desktop PC. We have had no problems with the RAM or PC. Instructions for use of the wrist-strap can be found on the Internet (RAM upgrade), including from RAM manufacturer Kingston. I don't recall if the product came with instructions.
