Hello Adrian,

which actual type of resistor did you use.
And from where did you order it?
For which quantity is the 40 usd price? (single piece?)

I guess it was one of the hzseries of vishay. right?
Perhaps a Y4725 (VHA512Z?)
http://www.vishaypg.com/docs/63120/hzseries.pdf
Was it including PMO?

With best regards

Andreas

Mine were < 40usd (4-wire, 0.1%, in reality they are better 0.01%). 2-wire types are probably cheaper.
