Jim September 22, 2011 September 22, 2011 I plan to redo my LED fixture this weekend and am looking for a local source for 1 OHM 5W resistors and 1 A fuses like these: Resistors Fuses Anybody have a source?
Cliff Puckstable September 22, 2011 September 22, 2011 Radioshack usually stocks a decent selection of resistors and fuses. I would try them first. What kind of LED setup are you running? Just curious, I would like to one day go that route. Good luck.
hypertech September 22, 2011 September 22, 2011 A 5W resistor is freaking huge. What are you doing with it?
Max Ivers September 22, 2011 September 22, 2011 For a class I'm taking that deals with Arduino's and microprocessors we usually get our stuff (resistors, fuses, connectors, etc.) from Radioshack. Try a location that isn't in a mall as they tend to be larger and have the oddball items such as a big 'ol 5 watter. If not, just go with DigiKey, they're really good about not packaging the wrong resistors in the bags and delaying your project further
Jim September 22, 2011 Author September 22, 2011 I should have said 3-5 watt. Just going to run my LEDs in parallel.
Guest thefishman65 September 22, 2011 September 22, 2011 I will be ordering from future in the near future as part of the LED group buy ir you are interested.
