Default Clip leads

Hi gang,
I am looking for a source of good quality clip leads. In the day, I would get them at Radio Shack. They were 12-18 inches long and had small alligator style clips with plastic hoods at each end.

The last few times I have bought them (mainly at our now closed ham radio store)
They have been ones with two fatal flaws. The plastic hoods are made of a material that when squeezed slips and slides between the fingers making opening the jaw of the clip almost impossible.

The other issue is worse. After a few attempts at using them the two jaws making up the clip splay out sideways making connecting to something truly impossible.

I don't want to waste more $$ on this type. Anyone know of a good source?

Tnx
Bob WB0POQ
