very nice, many uses
Seem well built and durable. I made a set if helping hands with these. get 10 gauge solid insulated wire and the wire fits perfect in the base of the clip. Cut wire to 10 inch length and make a block of wood with various holes in it for the #10 wire. A multi hand, bendable, sturdy tool to hold small parts while I work on them. Only for the cost of the clips.

PERFECT FOR WHAT IT IS
I built model cars. I needed something to hold the pcs while I paint it and let it dry. The Alligator clip work wonderful. I bought a bunch of Shishkabob stick for 1.50 a pack. I put the stick in the clip and save myself a lot of money. They sell a similar one with 6 pcs call (Airbrush Hobby Model Part Holder - Six Alligator Clip Stand)for 18.88 + Shipping in here. I paid like $5.00 +150 stick and got 12 clip.. IT DOES THE SAME THING JUST NOT FANCY..

Good clips, but with one problem
These are good quality alligator clips. Outside of electronics use, they work very well for holding things or clamping things, as in working with small things for a variety of hobbies. If that's all they were for, they'd be 5 stars, because they are solid, have good springs, and are well suited to such tasks.For electronics use, the first thing to know is that you can plug a banana plug test lead into the end of the clip, and convert the banana plug temporarily into a handy clip.But what if you want to make cables with alligator clips on both ends, something which is very handy for a wide variety of electronics tasks? How exactly does one fasten the wire to the clip in a way which is solid and won't pull out, and which makes very good electrical contact without any intermittent behavior when wiggled?Some alligator clips - but not these - have screws that you can either fasten the cord to, or use it to crimp down on the wire. I suppose that if you have a high wattage soldering gun, you could solder a heavy wire in place, although that would almost certainly melt the little red and black plastic tubes that come with these to indicate the polarity. This is not good enough.There IS a small channel into which a piece of small-gauge wire (#22 or #24 should work) could be threaded through and soldered with a medium soldering iron. That's one approach, but it is not as sturdy as using heavy wire and, of course, it is limited in its current handling capability.Here's the approach I'm using. First, get some heavy-duty lamp cord at the hardware store - probably #14 or #12 stranded. I have some around my junk drawer that I used, but I don't know what gauge it is. The conductor (once stripped) should be just a tad narrower than the channel at the end of the clip. Strip the wire, twist the strands together, clamp the wires in place, and solder to cause the strands to permanently hold together. Now insert the wire through the end channel, and using a crimping tool, crimp the clip onto the wire.Let me be more specific about that last step. I recently purchased some excellent wire strippers, the Neiko Tools Ultimate Self-Adjusting Wire & Cable Stripper , which work well for stripping this and other kinds of wire. It also has a wire cutter in the handle, and three sizes of crimping capability. The middle one works best. Basically, there is a narrow steel peninsula on one side, and an open round curve on the facing side. The best thing is to turn the clip so that the side of the clip that has two metal pieces joined together is against the round side, and then use the peninsula side to crush down the solid metal against the wire. The crimping tool should be applied near but not on the plastic marker tube. It is easier to understand if you have one of these clips in front of you to see. Really, ANY crimping tool with a variety of sizes should work.Presoldering the wire then crimping means that the clip is not exposed to heat, and the soldered strands do not fray or come loose with use. I found that by crimping well, I was unable to pull the wire out of the clip.Of course, you could use solid wire (maybe #12 or #10) instead, and you would not need to solder it, but solid wire is not flexible, and stranded wire is.The package does not provide instructions for fastening wires for electronics use, and the clips don't make it particularly easy. For this I deduct one star. For the price, these clips are a good product and I'm glad to have them.

OK & usable
I misread specs, but over the years will find a use for them. need a little large and stronger grip

Great little helpers
Really a great help to hold small things in place or keep beads in place. I've seen "bead holders" (a wire coil) and opted for these instead and am very glad I did. They are much easier to handle, take less room and are certainly less expensive. Would recommend for any similar use.

Great product for the money
I bought these for a craft project. The one's at Home Depot were too expensive and I needed a lot of them, so I bought these instead. They work GREAT!Would they work for their intended purpose? IDK. But they worked for me! I'll buy them again.

Exactly what they are described to be.....
Exactly what I thought they would be. Medium sized clips to make your own leads with or a jumper or an extender cable with, whatever you need. Strong clip "grip" but not too strong that it's a bother to pinch open.

Great for DIY helping hands...
I bought these alligator clips to make a set of helping hands for electronics work. They open up wide enough for most electronic components and grasp what I am working on firmly. The jaws are well aligned and do not shift when clamping fine wires or component leads. An unexpected bonus was that the clips fit perfectly inside the flexible plastic cooling pipe when the concentrator nozzle is removed. I put a small dab of crazy glue to hold the clip in place and it works very well. My main complaint with most most low priced alligator clips is misaligned jaws and weak pivot points, but all 12 of these close perfectly aligned and seem like they will stay that way. Good quality at a great price.

Quality clips that are cheap.
Tested the resistance of these and they do not add significantly to resistance. Great for testing and making circuits. Don’t forget to solder after you crimp your wire.

The springs are quite strong, and was using them ...
The springs are quite strong, and was using them for a home-made third hand. Therefore had to file down the teeth and add some soft tips as they were cutting into the wires they were holding. Once modified, they work really well for my use case.

Works as they should.
I like the insulated end. I don't burn my fingers.

Three Stars
Check the size of your "insert' before buying. Other wise a solid product.
