I've been watching a couple of YouTube videos doing component-level repair. I've noticed some of them have super fine multimeter probes, often with insulation covering most of the length of the probe. I haven't found ones like this on my usual sites, but I'm not sure if I'm just missing something. Can anyone suggest some meter probes like this?

https://sensepeek.com/ do manufactur those nice PCBite SP10 probes. New improved series: SQ10 probes. They also have 500MHz Oscilloscope probes! They are awesome :D

Then there are those small pincers: https://at.rs-online.com/web/p/klemmprufspitzen/0775704 Or very small pincers: https://www.sks-kontakt.de/de/test-measurement/produkte/produkt?nr=9741011 (digikey lists them as manufacturer Altech Corporation)

The SensePeek PCBite system is really nice. They're the best board holders I've ever used, very stable. Great for testing, and great for soldering. The probes are ridiculously helpful, it's downright easy to probe adjacent pins on a 0.5mm pitch QFP (with some magnification)! All rather expensive, but very, very worth it for the time saved.
