Sorry for the bump, but I figured it would be better than making a new thread about this.
Im getting a lot of new parts coming in, and im not chancing anything. For the last 5-6 years ive never even though about anti-static bands, as ive never had a problem with it, but now im just being careful.
Anyways, the kit I bought says "Or, you can remove the alligator clip and plug the grounded cord's banana plug into the round ground hole on a standard AC outlet."
So instead clipping it to my case, I can just plug it into my oulet in the wall? Just seems weird to me.
