Does anyone know of a (US) source for the 9203 photocell that's in stock? If not, is there a workalike or a vactrol that can be used in place of the photocell/LED?

Digi-key also has a "9203" in stock but they list the min. dark resistance as 5M rather than 20, so not sure if its actually the same.

Out of curiosity, is there a vactrol with similar specs? Small bear doesn't have the resistances listed for many of the ones they carry.

Is this for the Aqua Boy Mod board? I plan to build one soon. I bought the 9200 to try out, which has 5M max. Will this work about the same?
