Demo #2: Resistor Box Banana Plug Modding and Demo | Learning Electronics In The Lab With Jay Jay

In this video I mod a pair of resistor boxes by installing banana plug terminals in place of the lug terminals they came with and then I give a quick demo of them.
In the demo we connect them in both series and parallel and then measure their resistance with my Fluke multimeter.
I mention this video from Dave Jones on the EEVblog: EEVblog #1020 – Is A $7 LCR / Component Tester Any Good? which is where I found out about the RS-201W resistor box which he has. I searched on eBay for RS-201W but what I found for over US$1,000 (inc shipping) was way too expensive: IET Labs RS-201W Wide Range Precision Resistance Substituter.
