I've used most types of single and multi turn potentiometers as an amateur hobbyist and ordered these out of curiosity.I couldn't find any information online regarding their power rating, but most trimmers can dissipate around 1/8 to 1/2 watt. If these fall into that general range, I assume the heavier wire leads & heatshrink are more for physical durability than current/voltage handling.That aside, the screw terminals on these appear a bit larger than standard and feel much more snug. Both of these qualities make them much easier to adjust. I was able to consistently adjust by 1-2 ohms without any special effort. This was wildly impressive to me in comparison with standard trimmers that tend to jump around much more.Lastly, this appears to be the best value for these 5k trimmers from what I was able to find. 5 stars for precision and overall construction.I plan on testing the power rating soon and will update this review with my findings as to magic smoke numbers.

I incorporated these variable resistors into a custom project for my Colorado, specifically to bypass the passkey security system. The build quality of these resistors is immediately noticeable; they feel robust and well-constructed, suggesting they'll withstand the vibrations and temperature fluctuations common in automotive applications. I'm optimistic about their long-term durability.What impressed me most was the precision of the adjustment mechanism. Unlike some variable resistors that offer coarse adjustments, these allow for very fine-tuned control. This granularity was crucial for my project, as achieving the precise resistance value was essential for successfully bypassing the passkey system. The smooth, consistent rotation of the adjustment knob enabled me to dial in the exact measurement required without any frustrating jumps or inconsistencies. This level of control is invaluable, especially in applications where accuracy is paramount.For anyone working on sensitive electronic projects, particularly within an automotive environment, these variable resistors offer a combination of durability and precision that is highly desirable.
