screen grid resistor question

Post by sub » Tue May 17, 2005 5:36 pm

Is good screen grid resistor?
This is 10W, but only 500V DC

AAAH! I get it. I would think you could find Ohmite resistors where you are at. Good luck, I'm not sure about 10 watts.

I am not sure. Looks to be ok. Flames, what do you think, does it look kinda small?

It's rated for 5 watts, so it should be good to go.

It's 25mm, which is the same size as an Ohmite, give or take a few mils. Is 500Vdc enough for a screen resistor? DC current scares me. :cry:

Why not enough that 500VDC?
What is Ohmite current ?
(My B+ is 460VDC)

Thanks

Are you sure this resistor is wrong?
I bought this (cool looking :D vitreous, green colored)
10W is wrong? :cry:
I saw this resistor in Bluesbreaker (7W version)
