There are 4 of these style resistors, 3 have 5 bands, 1 has 4 bands.

The one in question is (thicker) Blue grey black silver blue. I'm saying 68 Ohm but seems to low? The other resistor that has 4 bands is blue grey black silver and is 68 Ohm and looks to be the same wattage/physical size. Why would they use 2 different sorts of resistors for the same value in the same thing?

The other 5 band is (thicker) Brown black red silver blue and measures 1K on a analogue meter or 680 on a digital meter???? Now I'm second guessing myself. Maybe its blue grey black the other way????
The board has no stepdown transformer and runs a fluroestant display like old school hi fi.

It switches on after several activations of the ON/OFF switch and only when connected to the printer.]]> Thu, 3 Jun 2010 15:58:50 technokid
