Looking for a replacement four band resistor. Brown/black/yellow/gold is 100K ohms. But how do l determine wattage? I've seen this four band resistor in 1/4 watts up to 4 watts and not sure which one to purchase.
This is for the thermostat on/off switch illuminating the tell-tale bulb in an old 240v dimplex electric heater.
Regards,
Stuart

By size and data chart.

There are quite a few size standards but these are about common sizes

Great stuff and many thanks to both.
The top one at 0.25W but on 100k ohms will match.
As the current resistor in my Dimplex heater has no continuity l assume it is dead? And the illumination bulb is toast as well, then?
This failure coincides with a recent local power cut. So l reckon change the resistor like for like and get a new bulb and we have illuminations again.
Now to find a replacement bulb 15.5mm by 6mm. Or will this bulb l have work, instead?

576-513 is rated at 14 volts. If you connect it to 230v it's going to have a very short lifetime... bout 0.02 seconds
What happened to the legs on the neon lamp sitting on the package?
Have a look at:

How did you check the resistor?
