do you need to work with SPI flash a lot? do you hate the unreliable clothespin clip style clips? do you want a clip that actually works and is cheap?

there is a bit of a learning curve (you need to push on it quite strongly to make a connection) but after that it just works. do note that the pin 1 marker on the 8-pin DIP connector isn't placed in the right spot, but it is marked correctly on the probe itself and the little adapter board it has on the other end.

I tested the WSON-8 and SOIC-8-W versions so I'm quite sure the other two work also
