Does anyone know of a good place to buy 2 meg pots in the UK?

I get most of my stuff from http://www.bitsbox.co.uk/resistors/potentiometers.html

Quick delivery!

BitsBox can be pricey for big orders, but invaluable for quick top-ups when you realise you forgot to add something essential to that big order you made a couple of days ago 

Some good sources on eBay, too. I've found more obscure stuff available in small quantities, like the Alpha pots in dual or 2.2k.



That said, if it's for a pitch control, test out a voltage divider first - the response can be better with that approach!

I could do with a source for 2.2Meg   (2.5Meg) trimmers ?
no suppliers seem to have anything over 1Meg,  could be I need to look harder !

[Bogus Noise]

I've not seen any, but would a 1M pot and a 1M/1.2M/1.5M resistor in series work for you?

[Circuitbenders]

Mouser do both trimmers and pots up to 10M, although most of them are both weird and insanely expensive.

Old Surplus stock, but cheap... http://dsmcz.com/presta/en/80-rotary#/resistance_base_valu-22-25/resistance_multiplie-megaohms
