Electronic components - Malaga

[TorreDelAguila]

Does anyone know of a good stockist of electronic components in Malaga, or an on-line supplier in Spain?

I need bits and bobs from time to time, such as resistors, capacitors, switches, connectors, modules, pcb items, instrument cases, audio and video items...

I can and do get stuff from the UK (Conrad, Rapid, Maplin, etc) but the despatch costs often exceed the value of the goods. RS is not really an option, either.

Often use Mailing Electronico in Torre del Mar, but their stocks are limited.

Hi Chris
Have a look at https://www.planetaelectronico.com/index.php

Thanks, Gerry - the site looks really useful, with a decent range of kit.
Will give it a whirl.

I've tried to use planet electronico in the past but find their site a little frustrating, some types of components just don't have enough information and if you ask they don't understand the question!

I'm used to using mainly Farnell, they have a Spanish wing that deliver next day. There is also Amidata (=RS Spain) but I find them slightly less reliable. Last big supplier is Mouser, I only use them on rare occasions though when the other don't have what I want. Another worth a squint is Banzia in Germany but they are slow on delivery.

Thanks for those contacts too.
Did notice that planet elec site was a bit thin on product specs and technical data, and a bit Maplin-like in product range. At least their item photos often show what the component actually is, so its spec can be checked out elsewhere!!
Thanks again.

I buy a lot of items from http://cpc.farnell.com/ on-line.
Delivery is via UPS often next day and often surprisingly cheap.

I've used this company since moving to Spain they also deliver, they are very good for domestic appliance bits and pieces, check out their site http://www.espares.co.uk/
