130 Ω resistor colour code
Four bands: Brown · Orange · Brown · Gold. The first two give the digits, the third multiplies, the fourth states how far off the real part may be.

Band by band
| Band | Colour | Meaning |

| 2 | Orange | 2nd digit — 3 |
| 3 | Brown | Multiplier — ×10 |
| 4 | Gold | Tolerance — ±5% |
How much it can take
Current and dissipation across the resistor, and the package you need. The suggested rating keeps a factor of two in hand, which is what anyone building a board actually does.
| Across it | Current | Dissipated | Package to pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.3 V | 25.4 mA | 83.8 mW | 1/4 W |
| 5 V | 38.5 mA | 192 mW | 1/2 W |
| 12 V | 92.3 mA | 1.11 W | 5 W |
| 24 V | 185 mA | 4.43 W | no standard part — needs a power resistor or a heatsink |

What ten of them actually cost
The price everyone quotes is the reel price. If you want ten, you cannot buy the reel — and the real figure is usually several times higher per piece.

Per piece, ten costs 1.8× the reel price. That gap is why a handful of resistors never costs what the headline price suggests.
Stocked in ±1%, rated 3 W.

Values that can overlap this one
At ±5% the tolerance bands of neighbouring values run into each other. A part sold as one of these could measure the same as a 130 Ω — which is why measuring beats reading when it matters.

- 124 Ω122.76 Ω–125.24 Ω
- 127 Ω125.73 Ω–128.27 Ω
