Protector Board + Zubehör

[petelake]

Hi,

I bought the protector + zubehör in Marotronics...

The resistor R3 is 170 ohm in the package

In the pfd "Protector board" it is 10 Kohm

Is this a mistake???

Thanks, Peter

Hallo
R3 ist der Vorwiderstand von der Led und muss 10K Ohm haben

Thanks,

I could not believe Marcus made a mistake, because I found out that in another packet is was the same...
I googled 10K color code and I was reading in wrong diretion.

Brown-violet-black-black-brown = 170 x1 ohm 1%

violet is red I think and when I change direction...

Brown-black-black-red-brown = 100 x100 ohm 1% = 10000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry...

Is there a way to see how not to make this mistake?...

Greetz, Peter

Hi Peter,

It is not easy for a not expert to read the color code.

Every time I measure the resistance by an resistance meter.
