Hi all,
So I know how to read resistor color codes -- that's not my question. My problem is that I'm color blind, and have a really hard time, especially with those light blue metal-film resistors, seeing between blacks, browns, and reds. And then also, sometimes the greens are almost browns.
Spoiled getting Mouser orders in where parts come in labelled bags. Then you can just verify w/ a meter that they're right.
But I just got a parts kit from ptown, and I need to sort about 50 or 60 of these and doing it solely with the meter is not fun!
Any pointers??
