hey y'all,
need a single 1n4005 for a fulldrive clone - happy to trade or buy, i have a few opamps/germ transistors. usually get my parts from smallbear, they don't stock them. it's really not worth me placing another order elsewhere from, but I'm happy to pay postage from wherever. I'm in newzealand BTW...

Any 1N400x will do I suppose, probably the differences are too small to matter in a stompbox. And even then, I cannot that there are no suppliers for this in New Zealand.
At least order what you can from futurlec, especially potentiometers. Will matter dollars on shipping alone..

Good point.
from looking at the datasheet http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/1N%2F1N4001.pdf the only difference is "peak repetitive reverse voltage". I don't know what that means exactly, but I don't expect to encounter 1000v in a stompbox, so any old 1n400* should be fine

A 1N4007 Diode should do fine,they're fairly common,I have a whole heap of them on a bandolieer at home..... 
If the diode is being used as reverse polarity protection,you can use any of the diodes from the 1Nxxxx series.....

Actually, I believe it is being used as a clipper. still, after looking at the datasheet, I think any old 1n400* should be fine

Gosh! I'm old.....this used to be known as PIV...peak inverse voltage. You know a diode only conducts in one direction, normally. However, if you apply enough force (voltage) in its reverse, non conducting, direction it will break down and begin passing current. That point of sustained reverse voltage resulting in reverse current flow is the PRRV.the3secondrule wrote:from looking at the datasheet http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/1N%2F1N4001.pdf the only difference is "peak repetitive reverse voltage".
