    what would you do?

    I have two viable options for a problem I have. I’m looking for any experienced opinion on this.

    My BOM calls for a 7.9k resistor – which obviously isn’t standard. I found some 7.9k resistors at Mouser. However, I got them the other day and they huge. idk what’s up with that. They’re 1/4 watt. I’d have to mount it vertical keeping in mind it would be taller than most electrolytic caps. anyway, I also have some 7.5k and 390ohm resistors I can put together to make almost 7.9k (close enough for this anyway).

    which option would you with?

    You can use your 7.5K resistor.  The trimmer should easily compensate for the slight difference.
