Hi everyone,
While variac hunting, I came across a power resistor
today I just couldn't pass up. I'm hoping someone
might be able to approximate the power capability.
It's ribbon wound, about 26 inches long, a little over
3 inches wide, 10 ohm, and weighs in at 11lbs (huge!).
The ceramic thickness from inner wall to outer wall is
about an inch. Anyone know an approximate power
rating? I'm guessing well over 2000W. Thinking of
using it instead of heater element for my pig.
