Captian Moody, I recall unpacking those in 1981. Fantastic value and saw many back in about 3-5 years for the inevitable failure of GE's wave-soldering to fill the feed thru griplets.
The place I worked had a solder station and bench spot just for griplet service.
Since I was the junior tech, I always got this job. Our standard griplet service included etching the trace adjacent to the griplets and we never saw one back afterward.
AA-AB-AC was the most popular Griplet set as it was Porta-color evolution set and likely got bounced around more.
EC and PC was definectly the "Griplet Plus" I think we used to count them when done to make sure we got them all.
