Oh yes, that definitely matters that is a very high resistor value by a factor of 100000 over the one you want.1 megaohm
madleds said:Pardon my lack of knowledge everyone. I'm having some problems finding some parts. For the most part I have 99 percent of all the parts + extras for more than 2 laser builds. Have used digikey, stonetek, kenon, all great (contacts)and for the last part, THE 1 ohm 1/2 watt resistor radio shack does not have, except for the 1megaohm and the 1kohn which are not nedded. Very frustrating . Any help so I dont have to order this resistor and wait 4 more days to get my build on? Yes , Iam a newbie
I'm in Canada and DigiKey is in MN USA...ColdStl said:I purchased some 1 ohm 1/4 watt resistors from allelectronics.com. They don't have the 1/2 watt resistors, however I find their site easier to navigate than Digikey.

If I make a Digikey order today before 8:00PM.....
I will have my parts in my hands by tomorrow Noon....
On the Other hand.. if I place an order with All Electronics....
I will have the parts in my hands in 2-3 Weeks...
