Resistance out the Ying-Yang

Okay, sure I could have purchased the 50-Piece resistor assortment pack from Radio shack for $6, but why bother when you can goto China and eBay and for $25 get 2500 resistors.

Metal Film Resistors

I will never go wanting again.

This place might join my list of favorite China direct companies Sun-Pec.

My others include:

LED Shoppe

Cell Phone Shop

Who do you use for China-direct stuff other than China-Mart, err.. Wal-Mart.
