hi there, i am some what of an amateur when it comes to electronics, i am confident replacing like for like components and building small circuits however recently i managed to overload a 240v led strip light and it has damaged the varistor, ive been searching for the same one to replace it but it would appear to be impossible to find one with the exact same numbers on it, so my question really is, is it as simple as finding one with the same ( or close to it) specification? i have managed to find spec charts to help me narrow down my search but i just fear that im not knowledgeable enough to trust my own opinion. any help would be appreciated. the numbers on the varitor are 7n471k if it makes any difference. many thanks.
