Well thats stirred up a bit of interest . Thank you all for your comments .
Can anyone answer MarkS question (elsewhere ) about the specification of the normal silver and gold resistors? ( amps and max temperature ) .
I havent had the 'pleasure '..yet... of fitting a resistor to the fan housing , but would it be possible to use a small metal plate to mount it on, and then fasten it to the housing ? .
I am just trying to reduce the temperature of the resistor, by the plate, and halving the current through each parallel resistor .
And best of luck to the experimentors . Be careful and get the calculations right .
