Am I the only one who is wondering why someone doesn’t come out with a watch band (would like one for my Pebble!) with a snap connector for ESD? Or the only one with a tan line in the summer from wearing an ESD wrist band? IF you feel the static discharge… well, WAY too much. You’ll never feel what would destroy ESD sensitive components. Last board I did had so much ESD protection it wasn’t even funny! Reflow a pizza… fine. ESD is not a joke. It can do things you’ll never know until it’s too late and you have a failure that you can’t explain (an ESD failure is VERY difficult to detect or prove). It’s doesn’t always happen like “ZAP” and it won’t work…
