@draknoid

Lets go with what you think

black,white,Gray/silver (not sure),Brown i think.

We go to start from the left

Brown =1

Gray/silver=8

white = 9

black = 1 (that is the multiplier).

So that would give you a 189 ohm resistor

If the last one is brown instead of black the multiplier change to x10 thus 1890ohm

I’d go with a 200 ohm and see if it lasts. If that one goes up in smoke go with a 2k
