content: Hello allFirst post here, watching Dave videos very long time but now think to join Forum here.Just thinking what kind of "set" capacitors i buy on my "stock". Normally i do something with arduino or esp8266 (5v or 3.3v) and i drive max 12-24vdc devices. I think not need "mains" capacitors.Try to find everything on Mouser or Farnell. Here couple links what i thinked to order, every hints / tips what is good solution to take own "stock".About 100pcs per component. I do search with price and get X7R rating.https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Vishay-Vitramon/VJ1206Y104KXQCW1BC/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/KEMET/C1206C104K5RACTU/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/KEMET/C0805C103K5RACTU/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Vishay-Vitramon/VJ0805Y103JXQPW1BC/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Vishay-Vitramon/VJ0805Y105KXQTW1BC/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Yageo/CC0805KKX7R9BB105/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nichicon/UCD1C221MCL6GS/https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nichicon/UUD1V221MNL1GS/Is that better buy Aluminum electrolytic capacitor with trought hole models or SMD models. Example this:https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Panasonic/EEU-FR1C221/https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Nichicon/UHE1V221MPD6/If you have other good recommended parts what can be buy same time (SMD) i take that hints/tips happily.I use many years throuht hole components my every project, but now i finally think i try to move only or most SMD components. Prototype boards are so cheap nowadays and smd take so less space and are cheaper and wider range nowadays.Sorry my bad english skills and many thanks everyone who can help me with this.OT edit: Think to start use this mosfet (logig level) with my project anyone have better models what think to use?cheaper, not that good RDShttps://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Nexperia/PSMN7R5-30YLDX/little pricier, better RDShttps://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Nexperia/PSMN2R4-30MLDX/Think to buy couple of this 3.3v regulators same time:https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Diodes-Incorporated/AZ1117IH-33TRG1Of course need to buy many many different resistors, but i think i only get cheapers 0805 or 1206 packages.

content: These are what you want:http://smtzone.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=store01&Category_Code=290They used to sell on eBay, not sure if they still do. You'll get a lot more for your money than at DigiKey and other mainstream distributors, and the boxes they use are by far the best way to store loose parts.

content: Thanks for answers.blueskull, Thanks for hint need to try change vishay out, i allready searched with price point, but maybe i missed something because i take that vishay components.iainwhite, Need to check jellybean topic and think what i get. Now i have couple IRFZ44N on my stock and they work almost every project where i need throught hole mosfets. That nexperia chips are quite cheap and get good RDS values, that why think to take that mosfets on my stock couple different RDS values = price points. I have many (about 100-300pcs) ULN2003 IC's that i normally use if need some little amplifier our arduino pins.KE5FX, Thanks for hint. Usa is little hard place to order anything on Europe. Normally so big postage cost and after that custom prices on Finland. Easily do 50-80€/dollars more price that price point. Not find that seller ebay.I finded Mouser this kind kits (of course they find Farnell, digikey etc too)https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/KEMET/CER-ENG-KIT-30/https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Wurth-Electronics/885070/Find one resistor kit too, but like if find something cheaper on resistor side:https://www.mouser.fi/ProductDetail/Yageo/RC0805JR-SKE24L/

content: smtzone still sells on ebay. I ordered some empty smd boxes like KE5FX showed from them and on ebay.frhttps://www.ebay.com/usr/smtzone?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2754shipping was more than europe friendly (free with item ...) and took less than a week to come to France.their capacitor kit store on ebay :http://stores.ebay.com/smtzone/Surface-mount-capacitor-kit-/_i.html?_fsub=3&_sid=126671098&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322

content: I've been doing the "low-buck" route for my kitsOrdered assorted 0402/0604/whatever kits from eBay, just the strips - fairly inexpensivePrint labels and put them in aluminum watchmakers cases (from Lee Valley here, I do believe the same are available in the UK - manufactured in India IIRC)For larger components, like SMD electrolytics, use larger watchmaker cases
