Title: Low Value Pots
Post by: theshame on January 13, 2008, 08:15:11 PM

Anyone have a good source for low value pots, hopefully in the US? I can't find anything thats not expensive or bulk-order only. Looking for 150 ohms.

You'll have trouble finding any standard pots of values that low but try looking for cermet potentionmeters or conductive plastic track potentionmeters

If you can't get low ohmic value pots you can use resistors in parallel to lower the values of pots.  It's not ideal but it's a solution :)
