Hi from turkey
Unfortunately I lost all my electronics stuff from the earthquake, I had a big electronics collections I got from my dad, he was electronic technical, lots of resistors, caps, relays, oscilloscopes, micro-controllers, extra..
Now every-time I want to make simple project I need to order it online and wait for the shipping...
So I will start again, I didn't find a complete kits to order, and when I found one, it's over priced.
100% of my projects doesn't exceed 12v, mostly with arduino, and I started to make my own circuits for attiny, simple radio extra..
My question is: what kind of resistors, caps and transestors do I need to any project?
Just the basic to start again
Sorry for my bad English
NOTE: Thank you all for your kind offers to send me stuff but I have to decline because of our import restrictions and taxes. Please continue to offer suggestions but sadly I cannot accept offers of kit, even if completely free of charge
Unfortunately, there is a huge tax from ordering from aliexpress, like if something around $5 the tax will be $15, I tried once and the package is still stuck at the taxation office, didn't receive it yet from like 5 months
In that case, I would just order only what you need for each project. If that happened to me, I would contact my political representative and ask why the import taxes should be so high, for things that aren't manufactured locally.
Sure, here's a suggested range of resistor values you might consider having on hand for your Arduino projects:
10 Ohm to 1 kOhm: These are commonly used for limiting current in LEDs, for example.
10 kOhm to 100 kOhm: These are commonly used as pull-up or pull-down resistors for digital inputs, as well as for voltage dividers.
Potentiometers: A range of 10 kOhm to 100 kOhm would be useful for most projects that require adjustable resistance.
It's also a good idea to have a few higher-value resistors (1 MOhm to 10 MOhm) on hand for projects that require a large resistance value.
and for caps he gave me this answer:
Sure, here's a suggested range of capacitance values you might consider having on hand for your Arduino projects:
Electrolytic capacitors: A range of 10uF to 1000uF would be useful for most projects that require larger capacitance values.
Ceramic capacitors: A range of 0.1uF to 10uF would be useful for most projects that require smaller capacitance values for decoupling and bypassing.
Tantalum capacitors: A range of 10uF to 100uF would be useful for high-frequency filtering and decoupling applications.
Film capacitors: A range of 0.1uF to 10uF would be useful for high-stability filtering and decoupling applications.
It's also a good idea to have a few larger capacitance values on hand for projects that require a large capacitance value.
Last year, I was thinking to live a little in Turkey and studied the issue - I was told that the tax on electronics from Aliexpress is about 30%, not 300%...
Maybe you should ask again? 30% off $5 is only 1.5 bucks...
The problem is they are not gonna pass, and if they pass, it depends on the tax guy, maybe he will put 15$ maybe 150$, there is no rule, it's up to that guy, here is an example for things I ordered from alibaba, it was a kit of resistors and caps, stuck in Istanbul Airport for a month, I'm 100% sure, I will not have them.
Second thing, you have a limit per year, if it passed $100 they will ask you to hire a tax attorney, that's cost alot, also you have to provide a company tax number, a person can not exceed $100
Also no company ship direct to south turkey, you should hire a second shipping company to take it from Istanbul/ankara to your place...
It's soooo complicated
just drop a msg in my inbox, I pay for the delight you pay for the shipping
