Important Notice (Effective 8/26/25):
Due to the increased costs from current international tariffs, our kits will temporarily ship without relays or trimming resistors. This adjustment helps us keep prices stable. Once market conditions improve, we plan to include them again.
For those items, you can easily order quality replacements from authorized suppliers such as Mouser or Digi-Key. In practice:
Trimming resistors rarely need replacement ? original parts can be cleaned with DeoxIT or similar if needed, while modern sealed types are simply an upgrade.
Relays are usually serviceable as-is, though the internal contacts may occasionally need burnishing if oxidation causes poor contact.
