A: Yes, but it is overkill. The 18A rating is much higher. You must ensure the physical pin spacing fits the PCB footprint of the smaller 6A10.
This wasn't just a sensor. It was a relic. CVD1810WJ units were likely a limited production run from a decade ago, before cost-cutting measures gutted the manufacturing standards. This was a piece of hardware built without compromise, designed for a purpose that standard bots could no longer fulfill. cvd1810wj extra quality
| Part | Possible Interpretation | |------|------------------------| | CVD | Could be a brand prefix, internal product code, or component type (e.g., ceramic vapor deposition, capacitor voltage divider, or a specific manufacturer’s series) | | 1810 | Often indicates dimensions (e.g., 1.8mm x 1.0mm for SMD components) or a date code (2018, week 10) | | WJ | Manufacturer-specific suffix for packaging, lead-free status, or grade (e.g., "WJ" = extra quality grade) | | extra quality | Marketing term implying tighter tolerances, higher temperature range, longer life, or stricter testing | A: Yes, but it is overkill
