"I just received some 10 megohm resistors for the MMC I am building
but I accidentally ordered .25 watt instead of .50 are they of any use?"
Bart Anderson replied:
"They will work, but the only problem I have is distance from end to
end. If it were me, I'd just try it. If you begin to get arcing
across resistors, well, then replace them."
Matthew asks:
If the distance is an issue, would treating the assembly with a
decent conformal coating help matters?
