If we were to redo the Johnson Noise experiment, it would be helpful to vary the temperature and to vary the $R_{in}$ more times. I believe doing this experiment more times with different variations would provide a more accurate spread of data.  We were able to find the charge of electron to be: $1.64 \cdot 10^{-19} \pm 7.0 \cdot 10^{ -22}$ coulombs. This is less than $2.4 \%$ different from the accepted value of the charge of an electron: $1.60217662 \cdot 10^{ -19} \textrm{ coulombs}$. I suggest a citation of the \href{http://physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/cuu/Value?e}{NIST value with uncertainty}.
