All the form filling in the world is better than the pain of trying to find stuff on the RS's joke of a websiteQuoteWell, the RS search is mainly slow, but you can find things there. The "hobbyist" site RS has is really horrible, but you can search on the "pro" site and copy & paste the product numbers - they are the same.Quote from: mikeselectricstuff on September 23, 2014, 08:45:13 pmGiven they have to live with stupid US export regs, Digikey's way of doing it is better than Mouser. With DK, you just enter the same thing you always do on the form & it adds no delay. With Mouser, it adds a couple of days' delay to turn round the form if there is something naughty on the orderGood to know. I haven't tried to order anything from Mouser yet because of the cost of shipping & handling from the US.
