R redclover7! Member Jun 5, 2025 #1 I see 110 ohms, but my meter tells me 100, what would you say? Attachments 20250605_145025.jpg 181.6 KB · Views: 15
Nostradoomus Well-known member Jun 5, 2025 #2 110 according to colour bands. Where did you get them and what kind of meter? Either way 110 vs 100 won't make much of a difference in circuit Upvote 0 Downvote

J jcpst Well-known member Jun 5, 2025 #4 This could be a learning experience for me, but I thought the gap would be the separation between the value and the tolerance. Read that way it could be interpreted as 1k. Then the meter reading could be an order of magnitude issue. Upvote 0 Downvote

JTEX Well-known member Jun 5, 2025 #5 1% resistors need 5 bands to be able to express the E96 values: 3 significant digits, 1 multiplier, 1 tolerance. I see 100 ohms 1%. The tolerance band is further away from the others. Upvote 0 Downvote
