00:00Paragraph 1, Hook
00:02Alright, electronics nerds, gather round, because I've dug through the deals and I'm about to save you money on a
00:07decision you don't have to overthink.
00:10This one's IRFZ44N vs IRF540, which MOSFET wins.
00:15These two little 2-2-20 beasts look nearly identical on the bench, but they are absolutely not the same
00:21transistor.
00:22So grab a coffee, crack open that heatsink drawer, and let's see which one deserves your bread-and-butter money.
00:29Paragraph 2, Product 1
00:31First up is the 5-piece kit that mixes the whole IR family, IRFZ44N, IRF3205, IRF1404, IRF1405, IRF4905, IRF540, and
00:42IRF9540, all in 2-2-20.
00:45This is the build of full bench for one checkout option.
00:49You've got the low-on-resistance workhorse, the beefy higher-voltage parts, and the P-channel IRF9540 to handle motor
00:56flyback or reverse polarity protection.
00:59362 buys you 7 different transistors for roughly $0.50 each.
01:04If you're the kind of hobbyist who constantly needs a different MOSFET for a different project, this one's the best
01:09value per dollar in the whole list.
01:12Paragraph 3, Product 2
01:15Now this one's a steal and it's rated 5-stars, 5-piece kit for just $0.47.
01:20Yes, cents.
01:22You get IRFZ44N, IRF510, IRF520, IRF540, IRF640, IRF740, IRF840, plus an LM317T regulator and a pile of N variants like
01:34the IRF540N and IRF520N.
01:37The real story here is the LM317T, throw in a couple of resistors and you've got an adjustable linear regulator
01:44for a buck converter or a bench supply.
01:47For the price of a coffee, you're getting a genuine starter parts bin.
01:51Just double-check that the legs aren't bent from shipping before you power anything up.
01:56So that's the rundown, 5 different kits, all including the IRFZ44N and the IRF540, and something for every budget in
02:03every project.
02:05All the links are in the description below.

02:16I'll see you in the next one.
