You can also get air cored inductors from Audiocom- http://www.audiocom-uk.com/ but they are a bit expensive and the last time i tried ordereing from them the website broke, so best avoid.

Yes they used to stock Tritec and Intertechnik inductors. However if you take a look now they've been removed which is probably a good thing since they were ridiculously expensive and, as many others have pointed out, its cheaper to buy from the Netherlands/Germany.

It might make sense to wind your own for really big inductors and large wire gauges. Looking for a 2.4mH 12ga coil, I found a spool of 12 ga magnet wire on eBay big enough to wind three for a little more North Creeks' price for one.

Smaller inductors and retail price for wire don't make sense to me either.


It might make sense if you apologised to your son for being a big meanie.
