25 Values 1/2W Resistor Kit from 1 Ohm to 1M Ohm 1/2 Watt 1% Metal Film Resistors Assortment

Quality resistors with a wide range of values

Good pack for building up bench stock of lots of different values. Been using them to breadboard DIY guitar pedals. The leads are really really thin, not as thick as the other pack of resistors I got in a different kit. But it will be fine when I start soldering. They are a little thin for breadboarding.

Nice variety and quality of commonly used resistors. But as I needed only two resistors for my power-supply project, a much smaller assortment would have better suited my needs. I will never use 99% of them. But nonetheless, it was an excellent buy.

I only measured a few, and most are within tolerance but some were not (though not far off). No issue for my application, but I’d treat them as 5% resistors rather than 1% to be safe. Still giving 4* based on value for money.

This is a fine assortment of 5 watt, 1%, metal film resistors. 25 values, 5 each value. I was impressed by the super packaging and labeling. Each 5 piece value in its own plastic, seal top bag. The label with ohms value, wattage and tolerance is paper, glued to the outside of the bag and is perfectly legible. The 125 total pieces enclosed in a sturdy plastic, two tab locking box. So much better than when I ordered resistors direct from China as they were poorly marked and in flimsy, too small plastic bags. I will be investigating other resistor assortments from this Amazon seller.

These are really big (got the 5 watts) and packaged nicely. Some of the bags (more than 1) had long black hair strands in them. Kind of gross, but at least we know it was packaged by a worker--and not a robot. Also the word "each" is misspelled on the label. Totally worth the money, especially to stock up on a sort of rare wattage that I don't find too often while scavenging old electronics.

Not the sellers fault, but you should know these resistors are very small! The lead wires are so fine that they are difficult to push into the prototyping boards I use. Sometimes they don't make great contact. I wish I had bought the 1/4 watt ones.You can forget reading the color codes... they're microscopic.Also, after thinking about it, I wish they had fewer values below 10 ohms and over 1 megaohm. That way, they could give more useful 10 ohm to 100kohm values.

The color codes didn't match the project I was working on. Couldn't get the finished product to work- wouldn't come on.
