@Dave: Will you post the Kickstarter video on your channel as well? Btw: You should have explained first what the µCurrent does before referring to your article. People have a short attention span nowadays.
I've always sort of wondered. If there's something so infinitely as useful sounding as a uCurrent, why Fluke/Agilent/etc integrated that function by now? (This is meant as a genuine question, not a rhetorical one)
Is it possible to measure the output voltage of ucurrent directly with the oscilloscope? Without a Differential Probe?

(This is meant as a genuine question, not a rhetorical one)Because it's ultimately quite a niche thing. For the majority of current measurement uses you can usually "get by" with regular multimeters, DIY shunt resistors, and upping your supply on your bench supply to compensate for the burden voltage.The popularity of it honestly surprises me.
From twitter: Kickstarter has some interesting stats. 9% have bought via KS (so presumably not fans). Only 50% watched the entire video.

Looks like 10 more hand-assembled uCurrents are available. Description still reads "low serial number, 5-15."
While it most likely won't happen, is there any possibility to bump the number of first production run units? I missed getting one by seconds If not, I am just happy that I will eventually have one
Any stretch goals ?
As a question for Dave, would you mind sharing the part number for the connector used in the uCurrent? Just something of interest... plus I always have difficulty in finding good connectors, in general, for decent value anyhow.
Coincidentally I'm in the process of setting up my new corporate bank account today, I hope I can change my bank details in KS to match. They don't let you edit this stuff after the fact, I'll have to speak to a human...I'm paying oodles to my accountant to suck all the data from my bank account and manage it, this will be a good test (or a plain nightmare) if all the transactions come in individually...
Dave, if you would be so kind as to declare the item as a gift valued at around $10 that would be superb!

What a missery. Would have liked to found the Project and get one of those nice mCurrets, but Kickstarter doesn't want my Money. On Pozible i payed happily via PayPal to get those nice Rulers but Kickstarter only acceps Kredit Cards. Don't have a Card...GreetingsJanaha
