I really don’t know where to go any longer for some things like this. I know, interwebs has it but I usually have questions that scamazon won’t answer.
Mouser really is to me a neat lil store. You get in, ask the guy in the counter for the exact stuff you want, they type one or two things in a computer, check if that’s actually what you want and in less than 5 minutes they fetch it
If it’s important… Double check the output with a meter just to be sure. Only got burned by it once, but for expensive/complex circuits, just give the critical components a sanity check.
And no more radio shack to buy more of these!

Mouser or Digikey are your friends here.
You pay a little more than the cheap stuff on Amazon but you can be sure you’re getting the exact specs you ordered.

Thrift stores, maybe? It’s been like a decade since I’ve been inside a thrift store, so idunno if they still have these
