In Reply to: Any sources for Holco resistors in far west Chicago burbs? posted by David S. on May 6, 2000 at 14:09:52:
I shall never forget the horror that Holco put us through. It was OK when we used small lots, but as we started using thousands, all hell broke loose. Very high proportion was either super-noisy right away, of worse, became noisy in the field. We ended up replacing thousands in the field with far better sounding Dale's and never had any problem since. Cost us untold grief and money in parts and labor. The company would not take them back (even though they acknowledged the defective parts that we sent them), so we dumped thousands (I am not kidding you) of them in the trash.Just my personnal experiece and your may be different.
If I were you and calling Michael Percy, I would get the Vishays - few dollars more, but virtually no problems (very, very small chance).
