    The 0:0 probe is really the way to go, it's wireless and has an infinite reach, due to the dynamic nature of the X0 probe it can handle infinite voltages as well as provide the lab with a quick and simple 0V reference. These probes also will never need calibrated as they have an infinite precision, combined with a $0 BOM cost they are the perfect alternative to traditional probes!

    • @linuxguy1199
      @linuxguy1199 Рік тому +3

      @@leyvarecio3699 Of course the X0 probe can integrate with a turbo encabulator, this is obvious due to the phase velocity of the magneto-hydro-dynamos integrated into the reduced reluctance, infinitesimal admittance properties of the X0 probe!

    Be careful with that Moebius probe, if you use it to measure signals with high frequency content and accidentally hit the resonant length or a multiple of 1/4 wavelength the standing waves could cause it to self oscillate and create a wormhole which an MSO might fall into and end up on my bench*

    Man, those awkward 10:1 probes with their complicated 2-position switches! Who on earth still uses those? Thank the geniuses at TMA for finally stepping up and banning those dangerous probes! I feel safer already! I can't wait to see what they'll come up with next.

    I actually wish the end of switchable probes wasn't an April fool joke. It's not just a matter of buying separate 1:1 and 1:10 probes because good 1:10 probes at reasonable price just don't seem to exist. I ended up making my own instead.

    I like the one of TMA's claims that having separate 1x & 10x probes will reduce climate impact over having a single switchable 1x/10x probe. Follow the science. It's settled.
    "Environmental Impact Reduction: By eliminating the need for additional switch components, the production of fixed x1 and x10 probes can contribute to a reduction in electronic waste, aligning with global sustainability goals and promoting responsible manufacturing practices."
    Happy first day of April :)

    That's the silliest thing I've seen in awhile. If people are confused by a 1:1 vs 10:1 switch... this isn't making them less confused. So whoever "we" is in this video, "they" should be really mad at "you" right now.
    Whereas, the company that made my oscilloscope isn't "banning" anything, they sell all the normal tools that there is demand for.
    Honestly, if you're confused by a 10:1 probe... do you even need an o-scope? Maybe just use a logging multimeter?

    how about making a adapter that would convert a 1x to a 10x probe. All you need to do is move the circuit for the 10x option into the adapter part and you now got 10x probe, remove the adapter and it a 1x probe.
