Thats

That's closer, but he needs 10 ohm, 1 watt, and that's 1 ohm 10 watt. And sorry, Rad, i don't know why i thought Mick posted that. :crazy:

For now I got myself some cement-filled ceramic resistors of the right value, and am going to try to get the small ceramic block off without breaking the windings.

I’ll keep You people posted. If it works, it would solve a lot of problems with sourcing wirewound resistors overhere.
I just looked and Farnells charge £3.95 postage on orders £0-£19?

poooff.. Error 403 “Access denied”

Well, that’s rather disappointing.

However, when I start from the main site, and fill-in an actual EU adress, the end result for orders outsìde the UK is still £18,-

Nâh, I gave up on farnell, and home brewn smokers/wirewound resistors for now. I’ll keep an eye on fleabay and/ or Amazon and a plethora of China sites.

Thanks for Your help anyways.

Don't give up so easy. I need some anyway, so I'll order a few. They're ridiculously cheap, and when they get here I'll put two or three in a letter and send them to you. It will take time, but we'll get there.

This is what I order and it's what's in the JP smoker.

Much obliged. That’ll be great. PM me, and add Your paypal adress, so I can pay You for Your trouble.

Given a few asploding/burning/scorched experiments, 4 or 5 pieces would do for now. (Got 7 tanks to fit with a wòrking smoker, though.)

Glad they got there OK. As for payment, just pay it forward. You'll get a chance to help someone else and then it's your turn. 8)
