Power Resistors in kits
#3
Hi Kevin!

Yes, I see. The decoupling resistors are not seen as Power Resistos because... they are not.
Aha, that's the reason for not bending too close, you'l break the seal
Thanks for clearing that all up!

What about the special shape for the Poeer Resistors, the legs bending inward toward the body and then out?
Is that to prevent them sinking down into the card?
I guess not.

Someone said that if you bought a home audio amplifier and you let it sit in the closet for 10 years without turning it on ever, you cannot use it anymore.
My first impression would be "filter caps" but that does not seem to be the solution.

Do you have any idea what this is about?
How long does a tiny solder joint last, is that is?

Thanks,

Strelok
