Since all of us are concerned about static in the electronics shop and a few members are using electronics in a dusty environment (wood shop) where an explosion is possible, it would be useful to have a meter and/or red/yellow/green led to indicate how much static is building up. I assume everyone has a proper hygrometer in their shop so they can make sure it stays above 55%. In the woodshop maybe it should be connected to one of the pipes of the dust collector, in the electronics shop maybe it can be connected to the blue mat most if us have on the bench.
