While it is possible to use one wand with multiple IAME chips or IME Chips, they were designed to be used as one wand per chip. The chip is typically glued (Crazy Glue® – cyanoacrylate) to the wand and then the electrical contacts established using a conductive epoxy or low temperature solder. To use a single wand and multiple chips will require that you invent a method of attachment and detachment (other than gluing) and a method for making and breaking (other than conductive epoxy) the electrical contacts from wand to chip. It is therefore advised that you purchase as many wands as you purchase chips. Please take a look at this animation of IAME chip packaging.
