Resistor 0.25W 2.4M ohm (10 pcs)

The Resistor 0.25W 2.4M ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 2.4 MΩ and a power rating of 0.25 W, sold in a pack of 10. With a resistance this high, it pairs with small capacitors to give long RC time constants, and it works well as a capacitor bleeder or a weak bias resistor on high-impedance inputs.

Resistor 0.25W 2.4M ohm Applications

• Long RC time constants in timer and delay circuits

• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 10 × 2.4 MΩ 0.25 W resistors

Tip: Clean off flux after soldering, since residue and moisture can form leakage paths that lower the effective resistance at megohm values. At 2.4 MΩ the 0.25 W limit is only reached at about 770 V, so the resistor's maximum working voltage, not its power rating, is the real limit; check it before using the resistor across high voltages.

Orders placed before 14:00 are ready for pickup the same day. Delivery across Lebanon usually takes 1–3 working days.
