I'm new to posting on forums so I apologize if I don't know how to use all the tools ( like posting a picture).

I have a resistor that I cannot find for the life of me the colors are:

Red,black,silver,gold,white.

I have looked everywhere and I cannot find any calculator that allows me to input these colors. Mainly because of the white at the end. Any ideas?

 

I find it odd that you have silver and gold in there. Are you sure that's correct?

 

Silver in the third position is x 1/10
I have several drawers full of 2 watt emitter resistors in the .22 to .56 ohm range.
If I remember correctly, gold in the third position is x 1/100
but, "point two zero, five percent nine" doesn't make sense at all.

 

I would work backwards.

Measure the value and see what makes sense.

Then at least you know if it is a resistor.

See if this fits measured value.

2 0 .01 5% solder?

 

It could be grey as the third colour, so it would be 20.8 ohms, the white is for Military spec.

 

0.20 ohms, 5% tolerance.
