[Amps] Bleeder thermal ratings...

[Karl-Arne Markström]

Just found a graph on the Danish power resistor manufacturer Danotherm A/S
website that plots the temperature rise for tubular vitreous resistors as a function of power.

Their resistors are rated for a temperature rise of 350 C at 100 % power,
and 75% power correponds to a 300 C rise.

This may explain the blisters and smells mentioned in an earlier posting.
