Looking for any Digikey (Electronic Components) alternative in Europe that is not Mauser.
I already know and buy from Mauser but would like other options.
For now I'm buying from AliExpress but would love a fully European supplier.

Thank you in advance for any answers.

https://www.rs-online.com/ is UK based and supplies most of the world through network of local and external partners.

They are not perfect when it comes to small electrics and has gaps in the product catalogs and doesn't always consider quality when listing products so that you must research yourself before buying, but on the other hand the catalogue is huge and they have good quality stuff if you know what brands you like to buy.
