Recently I noticed that there are smalls resistors and larger resistors of the same value. So a couple of questions
What are the watt values from smallest to largest? 1/4...1 Watt
What is the significance of the resistor wattage and how important is it?
How can you determine the appropriate resistor wattage for the circuit?
And finally and how is it indicated on a schematic? I only see the ohm value labelled on the resistor in schematics.
My circuits are generally small; typically experimental LED circuits.
Thanks!
