content: Maybe Dave won't do plugs, but I sure willI follow Extech on Twitter ( represented by Andre Rebelohttp://twitter.com/arebelo). Of the leading test equipment companies, Extech by far has the most giveaways going. So far I've won a pencil type DMM (similar to the Mastech that was reviewed here recently) and today I won a BR200 inspection camera/borescope.I used the DMM at work the first day I had it. I'll write about it more in a DMM porn post later.I'm really excited about the camera. It's the kind of thing that I often wish I had but have a really hard time forking the cash out for. The contest is at Vatche Arabian's bloghttp://www.planetextech.com/profiles/blogs/septembertoremember-giveawayand if you win you have a choice of one of four things:* EX505 industrial duty multimeter* EX623 5-in-1 clamp meter* “Color Alert” 2-laser infrared thermometer (#42509)* BR200 Video Borescope/Wireless Inspection CameraAll you need to do is sign up and follow the instructions!Good luck!

content: I registered and threw my hat in, but someone else has decided to take advantage of the 'enter as many times as you want, listing different applications', so I don't hold out much hope.Whoever designed this contest hasn't seenReal Geniusand really needs to, especially the end.
