 This product is a hoax, please do not be duped Oct 21, 2011
By Adrian Covert
"acender"
This product is a hoax, a ground strap only works by connecting the wearer with earth ground. This device does not do that.

Request Jul 13, 2011
By billyblind
Dear Amazon,
People trust products "sold by Amazon.com". To keep it this way, please consider somebody with a high-school diploma look into this one, and categorize it together with weight-loss magnets and tin-foil hats.

Cannot recommend Apr 30, 2009
By G. Doornwaard
I live in the desert and have a real problem with static electricity. I shorted out the controls on a hi-tech coffee maker with a static spark as I touched it. The wrist band has been no help with this problem. It only helps with the small static shocks that sometimes happen with the ear buds from my iPod. I don't recommend you purchase this if you are assembling any circuits.

Doesn't Work Mar 04, 2011
By Mike
I purchased this product, because I am in a computer repair class. I didn't like to have to be attacted to the computer, like you have to do with other antistatic wrist bands.
The first day I used it, I didn't have any ESD. I really thought this was the product that I was looking for. Unfortunetly the last 2 days, while wearing it, I have recieved numerous ESD, which could have destroyed the computers I was working on.
It seems that that ESD is less when I wear it, but it is still there. I am so very disappointed in this.
Anyone who purchases one, should really test it out for a few days, to make sure it is working for you.

Does it really work? Jan 16, 2011
By Harry
I recently purchased a wireless antistatic wrist strap. Before I purchased the item I did a quick check to see if it worked. I found a couple of comments that it did work, but you had to give it time to dissipate the static charge. (Real, fake, or knowledgeable, I don't know.) I liked the idea of no connecting wire to hamper you, so I bought it. I also purchased an antistatic mat and two conventional antistatic wrist straps.
Upon receiving the item I checked again. This is what I found on Wikipedia.
Wireless or Dissipative wrist straps are available, but they are widely considered as pseudoscientific hoax products. The claims of the operating principles vary from "Ion Neutralization, Skin Effect, Point Discharge and Corona Discharge Effect" to "Selglard electric halo principles.
[...] Amazon deleted the Wikipedia web address. Just Google 'wireless antistatic wrist strap,' and select the one from Wikipedia.
My opinion is that this wireless antistatic strap is unproven. If they have been around awhile and are still unproven, you can pretty well count on it being a hoax. If they worked, every technician who dislikes being connected to something by a wire (and that means pretty much every technician) would be wearing one of these. I have never seen a technician wearing one.
99% chance this wireless antistatic strap does not work effectively if at all.
