Hello, I'm in the process of ordering up some components from mouser and was
wondering if there were any suggestions as to what to buy in order to "stock
up". The shipping is a hassle for me mainly because the cost of the
components are virturally the same as shipping would be. I do try to
double+ my volume in order to be able to produce more than one device if i
so chose but i'm looking for suggestions as to what to add to my order.
Just so i don't have to make so many frequent purchases. I'm not a complete
newbie but i've been pulling components from destroyed equipment and this
has grown tiresome. Again any suggestions or recomendations are welcome.


I don't know about Mouser, but DigiKey has kits with the most common
values. I try to keep all the 10% values in stock from 100 ohms to 1M,
with a few "specials" like a bunch of 51-ohm carbon compositions since I
do RF work. So far my lab is nearly all through-hole, but that'll have
to change soon.
