Offer: Free "World's Smallest 0805 Resistor Kit" for first interested U.S. party

A while back I bought a bunch of 0805 resistors from Tayda and I kept them in a box, more or less unsorted, wasting time looking for the right value when I needed them. I just got a blank samples book to organize them and I organized them tonight. I had 200 of each and had to trim them down to fit into 4 slots per value for the book and have about 15 each of the following values left over: 0,100,120,150,220,330,560,680,820,1K2,1K5,2K2,3K3,4K7,5K6,6K8,8K2,12K,15K,22K,33K,47K,56K,68K,82K,100K,1M. I could throw them away which doesn't appeal to me, keep them, unorganized, which leaves my initial problem 7.5% unsolved which really does not appeal to me, or I can give them to an interested party. They are not organized in any way, but have values printed on each resistor. They are 1% resistors:

So there are like 27 values total, 13-15 of each value.

I can only ship to a party in the U.S. because I am only willing to part with one stamp to send these to you. Sorry, I hate to do this because I know this is an international forum, but I don't want to complicate my life just to give what is probably two dollars of parts away. I would prefer you be a newbie without SMT resistors and planning on using some soon so you are getting some value here, not just putting it in a box and never looking at it again. But, I have no idea your intention so...

Whoever wants this and is willing to give me your address, please respond to the post and state your interest. Respond here so others know you already have dibs. I don't want a bunch of PMs from people who all thought they got here first. Do not leave your address in the post. I will PM the first person who asks for the parts and ask you for your address and then send them to you.

No cost to you, I will cover the stamp.

Sure, I can use them.

Sure, I can use them.

That works as dibs for me. I will send you a PM assuming I can figure this out.

OK, thanks, I'll look for the PM.

On a similar note, I have 6x Nichicon VR 2200uF 100v caps that I'll probably never use. I bought them ~2011, but I've found I have no real need for 100v-rated caps, and they're a bit large for my typical projects. I also have some (around 10 I think) Panasonic 220uF 50v bipolar electrolytics too. I hardly ever use anything but 1-10uF for audio circuits, so I'll throw those in too.

Same deal -- free to a good home, first come first served.

I PM'd you on the caps.

Great. :slight_smile: I'll send them off this weekend.

Cool, thanks.

More free stuff in the south of England (Luton, UK) Sunday at a "boot sale", weather permitting he says. I like this guy's channel. He has some quite good videos. Also mentioned here: UK, Luton - Dunstable Downs electronics car boot sale - Page 1 and http://www.ddrcbootsale.org/

Oooh! That spool of transformer wire!

Got the resistors, JoeN, thanks!

Did it really take the post office this long? I was thinking Friday or Saturday at the latest. I sent them Monday afternoon last week.

No, I was away for a while. And taking my time going through the mail.
