DIY newbie question.

2006-09-26 by Rune Sagevik

I`ve just recieved a couple of Psycho LFO pcb`s and a couple of
questions quickly came up..

This is more of a DIY/electronics general q. and not specific to the
LFO`s I guess..

I`ve visited Elby Designs page, and in the CGS parts lists you can
find there it is referred to using 1/4 watt 1% metalfilm resistors.
What I was wondering (as I`ve not to much electronics skills yet) is:
To what extent is it possible to use types of resistors with other
watt specifications?

I`m asking because I got hold of a bunch of 1% metalfilm resistors at
0,6 watts.. Could I use these with great result? Why or why not? My
initial thought was yes, and that the only result of this would be
higher power consumption of the module itself but I dont know.. right
or wrong?

thanks
and
regards
Rune
