## Description

Slip slidin' away 
You know the nearer your resistance 
The more you're slip slidin' away*

If you're tired of the regular-old-twisty potentiometers We carry, why not *slide* over and try this slide pot? Most famously used on mixers and the transporter control panel on Star Trek, these slide pots are so cute and short at only 35mm. Use as a voltage divider, and you can visually gauge the voltage from low to high. Comes with a grippy plastic knob!

Comes as a standard 10K ohm linear potentiometer, and it works great for breadboarding and prototyping. You can solder to the 3 legs or sorta push it into a solderless breadboard (or a perfboard with large holes).

It has a nice feel, sliding it back and forth is *quite* satisfying. The plastic knob that comes with it is detachable and a light grey colour.
