Silly Job Title: Earth Grounder. I am the Earth Grounder!
In this video we do the 9th project from the Maxitronix 30in1 Electronics Project Lab Kit: The “Secret Code” Key.

We use the UNI-T UTi260B Thermal Imager to check thermals (there are none to speak of).
We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.
