Does anyone have a source for a step start resistor cone, the one that looks like a light bulb with lots of windings of toaster wire? The one that was in my just acquired 3K-A was open. I need one. B

Bob, It's actually an infrared heating element. Bob In a message dated 9/5/2006 9:43:14 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, bmaser@tampabay.rr.com writes: Does anyone have a source for a step start resistor
The ones like a stretched spring wound in a spiral on a ceramic former make great glitch resistors - no problem with voltage breakdown, current capacity or dissipation in normal use. The ones I have
It's actually called a cone heater. Here is a source: http://www.akinsun.com/Accessories4.html 73 Jim W7RY Bob, It's actually an infrared heating element. Bob In a message dated 9/5/2006 9:43:14 P.M.
The Heater elements in my 4K-Ultra were straight round elements (now since sold) they were different than the elements in for say the Henry RF Heater units which I have converted several to amateur s
I have seen them at a well stocked farm supply store. 73 Jim W7RY The Heater elements in my 4K-Ultra were straight round elements (now since sold) they were different than the elements in for say the
Amen, Steve. They make a really robust glitch resistor, as well as a step-start resistor. Henry used these when they opted to let the operator be the "step-start timer" by making it a position on th
Johnstone Supply in California has the ones in the 3K-A as a stock item. I can't get to my catalog for the part #. I suspect that a appliance parts outlet would have these available in other parts of
Hi Bob. It's a simple coiled piece of nichrome wire. If you can figure out the length and the gauge you could probably wind one on a knitting needle and then put back on the old former. We had a lot
Ok its a heater. Infrared also for some reason. Goes in a glass tube. You can find them everywhere from the farm supply store to the local donut shop. They even screw into light bulb sockets like fus
