This is a good idea for a thread. I suggest searching for local used electronic parts stores, like OEM Parts in Colorado Springs. That's where I bought almost every electrical component for my hybrid brewstand: the GFCI breaker, terminal blocks, terminal connectors, junction boxes, flexible conduit, receptacles and plugs, heat sinks, DC and AC fans, ASCO solenoid valves, the enclosure, lights and buzzer, transformers, all the different gauges of wire, all the different kinds of switches, all the different kinds of relays, etc. Notice that the only electrical components for my hybrid brewstand that I didn't mention are the PIDs, timer, RTDs, heating elements, and pumps. Because of shopping at OEM Parts, I saved hundreds of dollars compared to eBay, which is usually the second place I look for electronic parts.
