What are good places to buy electronic components now?
When buying electronic components, either RS or Mouser (can't remember which one right now) is super slow and fails a lot. Something like this would be awesome. (I know it's millions of references, but...)
DigiKey for electronic parts. Get whatever quantity you want. Amazon is rotten for this kind of thing, practically no search or browse capability.
digikey, mouser, aliexpress, amazon, banggood, ebay?
And source from mouser or digikey rather than amazon. The range is much wider.
FYI HN is a big fan of https://octopart.com/ for shopping your parts list.
digikey mouser jameco immediately come to mind but there are more. octopart has a listing
Have you tried Farnell? https://fi.farnell.com/
Amazon is not the place I'd go to for electronics parts. Mouser and Digikey are my go-tos.
Do search engines like Octopart or Digikey help?
