The resistor really is a deep and rich topic to explore. There were a number of topics I would’ve liked to cover in this video, but unfortunately there’s only so much time – here’s a few items that sadly, didn’t make the final cut –
- DIY ribbon controller
- How to read resistor values, in depth
- How a potentiometer works, and it’s variants
- How to use/apply Ohm’s law
- The Drawdio kit/project
- dissection of a resistor
- how to use a light-dependent resistor
I’m curious – what would you have included? Anyone care to post their own additions/corrections/reactions/contemplations/etc in video-form? If so please send us a link!
