Summary of PCBite 2.0 – Hands-free & steady solution for your measurements
The PCBite 2.0 is a flexible, hands-free precision probe designed for instant or continuous circuit board measurements. It features a "lift and drop" mechanism using head weight to maintain constant pressure without adjustment screws. The device includes a gooseneck arm and a magnetic base, allowing for steady, wobble-free probing even if the board is bumped.
Parts used in the PCBite 2.0:
- Flexible metal arm
- Compressible needle
- Probe head with integrated weight
- Powerful magnet in the base
- Thread interface on the measuring tip
Last year we created the flexible and rock solid PCB holder – the end to wobbly circuit boards on your workbench. TODAY we proudly present the perfection of a measurement tool. A steady but yet flexible precision probe made for instant measurements or total hands-free operations.
Our amazing community enlightened us with ideas that would facilitate their projects even more. There was no good solution for continuous probe measurements so we decided to create one.
The probe has a “lift and drop” function without any annoying adjustment screws to lock the probe into position. The weight of the head makes the compressible needle maintain constant pressure at the probing point so even if the board is bumped the probe tip will stay in position.
PCBite precision probe has a flexible metal arm and a powerful magnet in the base .The measuring tip comes with a thread interface for several mounting options.
The rooted gooseneck arm will keep your hand steady and give you the precision you need.

- What problem does the PCBite 2.0 solve?
It solves the issue of wobbly circuit boards and provides a solution for continuous probe measurements. - How does the probe maintain constant pressure?
The weight of the head compresses the needle to maintain constant pressure at the probing point. - Does the PCBite 2.0 require adjustment screws?
No, it uses a lift and drop function without any annoying adjustment screws to lock the position. - Can the probe stay in position if the board is bumped?
Yes, the probe tip will stay in position even if the board is bumped due to the needle compression. - What mounting options are available for the tip?
The measuring tip comes with a thread interface for several mounting options. - How does the arm help with precision?
The rooted gooseneck arm keeps the hand steady and provides the precision needed for operations. - Where is the company Sensepeek based?
Sensepeek is a start-up company based in Sweden.
