Does anyone know of a good place to buy 2 meg pots in the UK?

In the UK, sad but true :-)

BitsBox can be pricey for big orders, but invaluable for quick top-ups when you realise you forgot to add something essential to that big order you made a couple of days ago  :D

Some good sources on eBay, too. I've found more obscure stuff available in small quantities, like the Alpha pots in dual or 2.2k.



That said, if it's for a pitch control, test out a voltage divider first - the response can be better with that approach!

I could do with a source for 2.2Meg   (2.5Meg) trimmers ?
no suppliers seem to have anything over 1Meg,  could be I need to look harder !

I've not seen any, but would a 1M pot and a 1M/1.2M/1.5M resistor in series work for you?

Mouser do both trimmers and pots up to 10M, although most of them are both weird and insanely expensive.
i am not paid to listen to this drivel, you are a terminal fool
