Default Re: Temporary load for power supply testing

In a similar vein I needed a high wattage resisistor for the current sense input of a 723 based PSU I'm homebrewing. I needed 2 ohms, in the end I used part of an old electric fire element. I just bolted a wire to one end then used a hose clip with a wire attached and slid it up and down the bar until I got the resistance I needed. It works perfectly, also heat proof and easy to mount.
