luvdunhill Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 Owwie! VCAP? nah, a few very strange items though.. I think more expensive than VCAPs per pF? Anyways, a few of these 2 items: Voltronics PTFE trimmers (Mouser 768-A1J8 for example) Soshin Mica
n_maher Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 FYI - Welborne Labs is having a 2-day, 20% off sale. I recently ordered some stuff from them to see if they'd gotten their act back together. Service was decent, I even got an email response when I asked about shipping status. So maybe they've righted the ship, maybe I got lucky, I'm hopeful.
Gabe Logan Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Oh man.There are a couple things i would get form them if i was not so broke.
luvdunhill Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 It cracks me up how "similar" some of the Chinese part stores can be. Case-in-point: mableaudio.com http://www.kadelectronics.com/
digger945 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Posted April 20, 2009 How about a cheap source for Nichicon Muse, or better yet BG NX.

malldian Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 John's wire shop on eBay is a great place to shop for (you guessed it) wires! eBay Store - John's Silver Teflon Wire Shop: 24 AWG, Kapton Wire, 26 AWG Any other good eBay sellers?
MASantos Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 Heck yes, Richard is a first class guy. Gotta love the "come by bicicle and choose a free gift" policy!
The Monkey Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 Just walked by this place this weekend: CTL Electronics, Inc. Professional video equipment and services. CTL Electronics, Inc. Serving video professionals for 40 years --- System Problem Solver --- NEW, USED, AND VINTAGE EQUIPMENT - AV EQUIPMENT SERVICE ELECTRONIC ARTS REPAIR - STUDIO - EDITING - DUPLICATION TRANSFER VINTAGE TAPES - SYSTEM INTEGRATION CUSTOM MODIFICATION Not necessarily "audiophile," but they look like they could be a good resource. It was closed on Sunday. I'll try to poke my head in soon.
Tyll Hertsens Posted March 19, 2010 Report Posted March 19, 2010 Not for electronic stuff per se, but just about any material, bolt, tool, or widget you might like can be found at McMaster-Carr.

justin Posted October 20, 2011 Report Posted October 20, 2011 http://www.diycable.com/main/product_info.php?products_id=551&Cid=3c5cc05180a7f6992825909c26654198 this is a nice deal on a heatsink
n_maher Posted March 13, 2012 Report Posted March 13, 2012 Not necessarily a new supplier but I just got an update from these folks - http://www.metcaseusa.com/enclosures/combimet19.htm - with several new offerings. Running their online quote/price tool seems to show pretty reasonable prices. Not sure what their quality would be like but I may call and see what the chances are of getting a sample.
The Monkey Posted March 27, 2013 Report Posted March 27, 2013 Not sure if this is the best place for this but am interested in an infrared thermometer. Uses could be as varied as making sure my HVAC is working right, to gear operating temps, to coffee temp. Don't necessarily want to spend 300 bucks, but Fluke is on my radar.
Dusty Chalk Posted March 27, 2013 Report Posted March 27, 2013 Funny you should ask today, I have the one that goes on sale at 6:00pm PDT and it works fine. Get that, then see if you need anything more.
livewire Posted March 27, 2013 Report Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Not sure if this is the best place for this but am interested in an infrared thermometer. Uses could be as varied as making sure my HVAC is working right, to gear operating temps, to coffee temp. Don't necessarily want to spend 300 bucks, but Fluke is on my radar. The Fuke Model 62 "mini" is $85 on Amazon. The Model 62 "max" with more buttons to figure out is ~$130. Home Depot sells a similar pistol style IRT with laser pointer for around $50. Online, they have a whole bunch of them, starting at around $30. Harbor Freight has them for about $25 when on sale, normally $36. Edited March 27, 2013 by livewire
Dusty Chalk Posted March 27, 2013 Report Posted March 27, 2013 The Rosewill will be $17. Does that make it a sub-knockoff?
Grahame Posted March 27, 2013 Report Posted March 27, 2013 Amazon < $15 http://www.amazon.com/Infrared-Laser-Non-Contact-Digital-Thermometer/dp/B004KV4DN0/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1364425841&sr=8-15&keywords=ir+thermometer Rosewill $25 Neweggs http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&N=-1&isNodeId=1&Description=ir+thermometer&x=-836&y=-112
Dusty Chalk Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 No, the one Rosewill is $17 right now, for the rest of the evening.
dsavitsk Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 I have one I got from woot for ~$25. I works well enough that I wouldn't spend any more on one unless something critical depended on it.
cetoole Posted January 6, 2014 Report Posted January 6, 2014 Just smoked my second (mid level) dremel tonight, looking for something better for doing stuff like drop through transformer and IEC plug cutouts. Anyone try the rotozip rotosaw+ or dremel 4200? Would be great if it didn't get burning hot in my hands too.
