Really weird design?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_3FCAbNyMM

One of these socket testers has great circuitry and one has not.  I'll let you come to your own conclusion about the lesser one.  Note that it may have been the resistors that masked the transistor and made it look as though it was getting hotter than it was.

Really weird design?

Do you plan to do the Socket and See one you had in the other video? I’m curious because that’s the one I have.

I get a perverse thrill at hearing a circuit described as "terrible" and/or "awful". (Just as long as it isn't mine)

Maybe they had a bunch of transitors to use up? Maybe the designer got a transistor use kickback?

Much of this video is very slightly out of focus, alas.
