Dual Gang 9mm Pot Buddy XL
-
Heads up!
The Dual Gang 9mm Pot Buddy XL is BYOP (bring your own potentiometers). It does NOT include pots.
Another tremendously useful breadboarding companion.
As far as I can tell, there's just no good 'out-of-the-box' way to breadboard with dual gang pots. This tool sets out to address this by extending all the same smart features of the Pot Buddy XL to 9mm dual gang pots.
Grab a one of these, plug in your dual gang pots, and then jumper their legs into place on your breadboard.
Connect your multimeter to the loop hookups at the left of the board and simply flip a toggle switch to get a quick read on any of your pots.
The Dual Gang 9mm Pot Buddy XL makes room for up to six typical 9mm dual gang potentiometers - like the alpha / alps style snap in pots. You know the type.... 2.54mm pitch pins, often have little snap in wings on the side.
Like the other 'Buddy XL' boards, if you need more than six dual gang pots for a project, you can daisy chain multiple Dual Gang 9mm Pot Buddy XL's (and Trim Buddy XL's and Pot Buddy XL's for that matter) to each other using a three wire JST PH (2.0mm) cable. This will allow your connected multimeter to read any of the daisy chained pots without having to move it from board to board.
