If your circuit is drawing only 25mA, then your dissipation drops to 0.3W. Keep in mind though, if you're putting one resistor for all the lights, you have to figure on the total current for them all - if each light draws 10mA and there are four of them, you're at 40mA total already, or 0.48W.

I beat myself up ALL the time for not buying this when I had the chance… but I'm looking for this in MEDIUM.
Would prefer new, and obviously NO FAKES, I know how to check.
Preferably blank (no name and #)  | |

I've had my bodum for years. Works like a champ. Just remember to get your coffee ground for a french press. Makes it a lot easier to press.

Thanks Soundy, but that feeler gauge set is not exactly what I'm looking for.
I'm looking for a coloured one for measuring brake pads.. Brake Feeler Gauge Measure Pad Thickness Tool Set - Amazon.com
One that Looks like that, but local..

Already got a vernier caliper, but I don't want to be taking the pad off the caliper to get measurements as this is just for quick measurements when the wheel is off.
Thanks though!

I realize you're buying in bulk but that's probably the cheapest snack/meal in the area and will last you.

That funky high-reflective paint you can paint on a wall to make it better for a projector screen... any place that's particularly good to find that, hopefully fairly cheap?

where can i find 3/32" punch? need it to punch out the pin holding the reverse lock out ring on the shifter.
Don't mind buying a whole set that includes this size but prefer to just buy the exact size i need. Check canadian tire the smallest punch they have is 1/8
