## Description

Introducing this pack of 1/4 Watt Resistors for Makers, it's the best assortment of Resistor's we know of . Resistors are used to make circuits of every kind and they're essential for almost any electronic project you'll set out to complete. This Resistor kit comes with 25 resistors for twenty commonly used resistor values (including 0 ohm links!) in a convenient, clearly labeled pocket-sized sleave.

- **Through Hole Resistors** - Solder them in or use them on your breadboard.
- **Stay organised** - The folded sleeve they come in is clearly labelled, secure, and a great way to keep your resistors in some sort of functional order.
- **The resistors we need! -**  Broken down in to 20 different values, you'll get 25 resistors for the most common values. That's 500 total.
- **Color coded** - The back of the resistor kit even has a resistor colour code look-up chart and a table of colour codes for the included resistors!
 
### How to use Resistors

This is no small topic, between pull-up resistors, LED protection resistors, putting resistors in series, in parallel, the list goes on. We're full-time makers and we use this gear on a daily basis, so we put together guides and helpful tutorials that will show you the best way to use Resistors in your circuits and projects.

[Our comprehensive guide on how to choose the right Resistor](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/analogue-electronics/how-to-choose-the-right-resistor/) is the best way to learn just what you can and can't do when using these little components.
