Do you actually see numbers? I see colors but my brain translates
them to ohm values (for resistors), not quite so quick for capacitors
because there are different code arrangements. I suppose if you
encounter very old resistors you could say the same is true. Body, end,
dot rather than stripes. Allen-Bradley/Ohmite printed the values right
on the resistor.
I wonder, BTW, what the connection was between the two companies.
Ohmite made it clear that their resistors were made by AB, same with pots.
