Multi turn linear pots?

Thatch_Ear · 21st May 2002, 06:45 AM

I know stepped is the way to go but not having a lot of $$ I do look for bargains. Today I found some 10 turn 1K Beckman Helipots for $5 ea. Big around as a silver dollar and a 2" deep body hermetically sealed. I am not doing anything right now that I need to use a pot in and am wondering if anyone has tried these or something like them. Want to get some more before they are gone if worth fooling with.

Looks like someone may have gone to Tanner's. Look out Harry, he is going to get all your favorite caps.

Yup, but the most fun is to be found in Benbrook.
