These do not meet the posted on-state resistance specs (copied over from the old Perkin-Elmer Vactrol data sheets). I have measured several of these at the 40 mA draw and they are typically 600 - 800 ohm, not the 200 ohm spec at that current draw. The old Vactrols would routinely meet spec. Be aware that if your design requires posted specs, you may be disappointed

4 stars since a bit pricey for a commonly used LDR, but fast ship & great service as always, thnx AES!
