Reliable angle sensor
I used this in a small robotic arm project to measure joint angles. The linearity is decent for a carbon track pot, and the 3-pin header makes connection very quick.

Perfect for Arduino projects
This potentiometer module works flawlessly with my Arduino Uno. The signal is smooth and stable, making it great for controlling LED brightness or motor speed. Highly recommended for beginners.

Good value but knob is loose
The sensor itself is accurate and easy to wire up. However, the included plastic knob feels a bit loose on the shaft. Still, for the price, it's a solid component for prototyping.

Compact and effective
Small footprint fits perfectly on my custom PCB. The rotation feel is smooth, not too stiff or too light. Will definitely buy more for future builds.

Works well for learning
Bought this for a university electronics lab. It's durable enough for repeated student use. The only downside is that the pins are slightly short for some breadboards.

Standard 10k performance
Exactly what I expected from a 103 potentiometer. No dead zones in the rotation, and the voltage output scales nicely from 0 to 5V. Great for calibration tasks.
Q: Does the package include the white knob shown in images?
A: Yes, each module comes pre-assembled with a white plastic knob attached to the rotary shaft.
Q: Is this module compatible with 3.3V logic systems like ESP32?
A: Yes, this module operates comfortably within the 3.3V to 5V range, making it fully compatible with ESP32, ESP8266, and 3.3V Arduino boards.
Q: What is the lifespan of the carbon track in terms of rotations?
A: While specific cycle counts vary by usage conditions, standard carbon track potentiometers like this are generally rated for approximately 15,000 to 20,000 rotation cycles.
Q: What is the exact resistance curve of this potentiometer?
A: This is a linear taper potentiometer, meaning the resistance changes proportionally with the rotation angle, which is ideal for most sensor applications.
Q: Can I use this to control a high-power motor directly?
A: No, this is a low-power signal sensor. It should only be used to provide an input signal to a microcontroller or driver circuit, not to drive motors directly.
