The Pokit Pro is an Aussie-designed and Kickstarter-funded bit of troubleshooting kit.

I pledged AU$139 + AU$10 shipping during the KS campaign in Nov. 2019 with an estimated shipping date of May 2020.

It arrived today in May 2022.

Billed at a 27% discount, for $139 it included:

Pokit PRO
Hard Case
Probe Clips
Probe Tip Cover
Charging Cable
Spare 10A Fuse

I did not receive a spare 10A fuse. However based on the current pre-order price, the KS price was pretty good value.

{Update: the spare fuse, etc. came a few weeks later, so all the KS promised bits were received}

I've managed to break one of the parts already (which didn't seem to be of use anyway), but I've got a workaround using other parts.

I think more use-experience is required on my part to get the most out of it.
