Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Wire Wound Resistor 8W 68Ω Through-Hole in Egypt?
Wire Wound Resistor 8W 68Ω Through-Hole currently costs 12 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Wire Wound Resistor 8W 68Ω Through-Hole in Egypt?
Wire Wound Resistor 8W 68Ω Through-Hole is available from Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Do I need a heatsink for an 8 W resistor?
Power ratings assume good heat removal. If it will dissipate close to 8 W continuously, mount it on a heatsink or metal surface and leave space for airflow.
What is the maximum current at 68 Ω?
Using P = I²R, the current at full rating is I = √(8/68) ≈ 0.34 A. Keep the actual dissipation below 8 W for a safety margin.
