I ordered a MiniTools test clip to start experimenting with flashing EEPROMs. There was no information on the retailer's website regarding the width of the pins. This is what I got:

I asked MiniTools if they have any solution to this. They said "no". I then realized that this clip was probably meant for soldering. Which I haven't had the energy to learn yet.

I ended up buying the expensive Pomodo one.

The flashing went well.

Is there a reason you didn't try bending them alternately if using individual connectors? Are they too fragile?

    All I heard was:

    And then it all went dark.

    I feel so incredibly stupid for not realizing that I could just bend the f*ckers. XD
