[Amps] Need -- 300 ohm 50w noninductive resistor

[Glen Zook]

If you tried to find them on their website, if you don't really know how to search, you can go insane!

They do have 50 watt, 300 ohm thick film resistors.  The 1%, 50 watt, 300 ohm resistor is p/n 652-PWR221-2FB300F.  The price, in single quantities, is $7.70.  They are made by Bourns and are listed on page 658 Feb-July 2011 catalog.  Now the price may have changed a little, which definitely happens before the next catalog comes out.

Go to the Mouser website and type the part number into the search box.

I buy parts from Mouser at least once a month, and sometimes more.  I find it much easier to look in the printed catalog for the item, check the availability on line, and then order by their 800 number.  Ordering by the telephone is definitely the fastest way to get your order.  I you place the order by around 8:00 PM CDST, the order almost always goes out that evening.

Thanks, they don't stock 300/50w but I could get five 1500/10w, which would work.
