Resistor 0.5W 2.4K ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 2.4K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 2.4 kΩ and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. It is a handy value for setting low LED currents, driving transistor bases from microcontroller pins, building voltage dividers and setting op-amp gain in Arduino and ESP32 projects.

Resistor 0.5W 2.4K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 2.4 kΩ (2,400 ohms)
• Power rating: 0.5 W (1/2 W)
• Type: fixed resistor, axial leads, through-hole
• Current at 5 V: about 2.1 mA
• Fits: breadboards, perfboards and PCBs
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Resistor 0.5W 2.4K ohm Applications

• Low-current LED indicators (about 1.25 mA for a red LED at 5 V)
• Base resistors for NPN transistors such as the BC547 or 2N2222
• Voltage dividers and level shifting
• Gain-setting resistors in op-amp circuits
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 2.4 kΩ 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity, so they can be fitted either way round. With 2.4 kΩ, the 0.5 W limit is reached at about 35 V across the resistor, so check the power (P = V² / R) only when using it at higher voltages.

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